Surrounded by people. So alone.
Distance separates us but their voices are farther.
I smile and nod at them,
but its just a defense.
Protection from questions.
Can't wait to talk to you again.
I wonder how you are doing, so far from me.
I feel so weak,
thoughts of you strengthen and break me at the same time.
My heart hurts but I go on.
Knowing we can see each other again.
Just stay safe and come back home.
