"i wish you were here!" like a
postcard from a journey to a place
too far away from you

it’s hard to think straight when
all i can do is imagine your hands on
my lower back or my cheek or
over my lungs as i breathe your name
like a prayer to god who could
move a mountain or two

connecting me to you

distance is only the passage of
time to connect two dots, it feels
like an illusion it feels like
something i made up in my
mind

an excuse
for no use

i can’t get you out of my
head, i can’t get you out of my
words, i can’t get you
out of my
hands

into my heart
