It is hard to be apart from someone you love. It’s not the first time, it won’t be the last. In many ways it is just a part of our lives being governed by the realities of work, family, busyness and a lack of resources to do what we would like to be doing.
Leo has been away almost a week. It will be good to have him home again tonight.
Apart
One heart beating
One flesh.
Distance creates
Phantom limbs.
The brain sensing
Denies the rift,
But the heart
Seeking the veins
To carry its nectar
Has no where to spill its love.
We are for a moment
Apart.
