8,194 Miles


Hovering just within my reach, The warmth of your body Curling around me in seductive swirls, Eyes piercing my soul, Whispers of your lips lingering on mine, You stand a 8,194 miles away. We are connected in skin But unable to touch. I have been frozen forever, But you melted me into your arms. Right now I am freezing again. Arms outstretched towards you, I cry your name. God rips you from my heart, And I have nothing to patch the wounds. Salty, hot tears crawl on my cheeks And your warm, calloused hands wipe them away. But when I look up You are a 8,194 miles away And I cannot have you.
