Distance Poem by Nicole Baker

Does distance mean a thing when you are in love?
When you can be so far away from that one true person,
But it could feel like you are both in the exact same room,
Yet, alas you are not.

Nothing can keep you apart,
Not even the distance,
Because he promised you that he would circle the world and back again just to be with you,
How much would it cost to keep that promise though?

You and he are made for each other,
Two halves of the same penny,
Two pieces of the same broken heart that jigsaw together to make a whole
It's just a shame about the distance though.

Distance,
What is distance?
Do you believe that distance could keep you apart?
I don't.
