7 Feet Away

Grow the distance,
It’ll make you ponder
So much you’ll start to wonder

“Have you eaten?”
“Did you take your medication today?”
“Are you smiling?”

Jay said we are far away
Like the Moon to Earth
Using music to quench our thirst

🎶 … you are 25 minutes too late …
… I call you but you don’t answer …
… however much I think of you, you’re not here anymore … 🎶

One less person calling (me)
Telling me the hurt they held
Soothed my pain that too had swelled

telling me how to be myself
reaching out searching for consolation
a pair of ears that listen.

The distance between us is now a fixture
Yet everyday felt like it is growing wider
With more memories floating into exhilation
