Farther away now than ever. Yet I can almost feel your breath on my neck. Not a single word spoken, but you speak through song. I know it’s wrong, but it’s like hitting every green light when you are praying for something to stop you - just slow me down. In the dark of the night, I reach for you. But there is never enough tread on my tires to get that far. Hasn’t it always been this way? Even beside you, I was searching for depth and diving into puddles.
