Now that we're close after years
Yet are far like sky and sea.
Wish that drifting away could be
easier like holding on,
Then teardrops on pillow
would be smiles now,
Gloom cladded with sheets
would be glee under the stars now.
It aches to unclench us here,
Here where we are falling for glances,
Feeling the emotions we've lived.
It will be agonizing
Not to hear your voice all night,
Enduring the evenings
without your sight.
But then a thought rushes to mind that
'Every period needs a period.'
