We’re only 2 minutes away

But we’re also an ocean of words apart

Things should honestly stay that way

Because I wouldn’t even know where to start

…

We’re only right down the street

But the valley of emotions keeps us at bay

I can feel that distance shrinking

But it’ll still be awhile before we see that day

…

Do I want things to be this way?

Certainly not

If it were up to me: we’d still be US

A union of love, acceptance, growth and trust

…

But that’s not the reality of the situation

‘Cause our needs required full concentration

And all of our talks and conversations

Just led to perpetual frustration

…

So we have to continue OUR social distance

Like the world and its current state

No hang outs, no meet ups

And no texts or calls on special dates

…

I hope you notice my absence

But don’t let that stunt your growth

I’m praying for change and evolution

For you and me both

…

Don’t wait for me.

Because I’m not waiting for you.

Continue to remain free.

And I’ll do what I need to do.

…

But while you remain a valley away

And I continue to stay an ocean apart

I want you to know this:

…

You’re missing the best part

…
