the last night we spent together
i was asleep
you had to park and walk because there were no empty spaces
the next morning i drove you to your car
and i dropped you off
and i drove back home
and i had absolutely no idea that was the last time
that was the only time that you ever had to park that far away
you always found a space up close
i never had to drive you to your car
only walk you to the door
give you a hug
and say, “See you later!”
it was weird
your car wasn’t even that far away
just in the next parking lot over
but i wish i could get those 2 minutes back
i wish there was an empty space
then maybe the distance wouldn’t manifest itself
