Distance


They loved me from a distance.

They judge me from a distance.

I seemed okay from a distance.

 

They sent “positive vibes” from a distance.

Sending thumbs up and heart emojis from a distance.

They can’t see a cracked screen from a distance.

I fell further from a distance

 

When they held their hands out to catch me,

they missed. 

 

They couldn’t reach me from their distance.
