Distances

Hear me for the words I speak are of the utmost of importance. They shatter like glass and tear my throat. I hope they mean as much to you as they do to me. Please just reach down and lift me up. My eyes are turning to dark. If I shouted these words across the way and out to you, would they ring as true? Would you hold your arms up and run into mine? Could it be that easy? If everything fell into place, would you know it? If the words strike you in the moment, would you know it? If I held my hands up and shouted out to you, would you know me? Would you know me?
