As She Pressed Poem by Diana van den Berg

As She Pressed



As she pressed
Send and Receive
for the millionth time,
she wished, for a moment,
that it was as easy
as that
to bring him back to her...

but then

she realised that something
so precious
deserved infinitely more
than
simply
pressing
an electronic button

but then

that was before...
