The Distance Between
Poem: Home is two people belonging together
The distance between them is vast
Crossing icy blue rivers,
Mountains, hills, and forests,
Prairie fields adorned with purple weeds
Thistles pricking against bare ankles
Tiny barbs twisting into angel feet
And the space between them is also nothing
A breath, a lacy wisp swirled into empty space
Between soft lips waiting to kiss
Two lovers drink each other in
Intoxicated with the power building
A sparkle and a thread
Fire blazing forth through combustible love
Showering its hot ashes into the fibres
Of two souls at home, entwined together
Near or far these elements are never apart
Belonging one with the other.
