The only way I like distance
Is protected by your gentle hand
When it cups my little breast
Giving me nourishment and life
Then my eyes can wonder
Past the soft blur of your face
Pressed so close to mine
That I can barely see you
And as my lips cling hopefully
To the sweetness of your mouth
My gaze flows, fading
Blissfully into the distance.
The only way I like distance
Is enchanted by your velvet voice
When it soothes my ear
With its unbearable whispers
Then my mind can wonder
Past the softness of your tone
Brushing my cheek so warmly
That I can barely hear you
And as my heart beats wildly
To each word you say
I contemplate abstractly
The virtues of distance.
