distance

time and her,
made a pact
to come between,
to move, to wreck

the answer lies
not in the mind,
nor in the words
that led us to pack

time, he passes,
we can do nothing,
distance, she creeps in,
leaving us empty.

with my hands and tears
and feet and words,
i tried to erase them
but i can't, it seems

the wear of time
that puts wrinkles on your face
the cost of distance
that leaves us apart in this phase

to all who thought,
time was the reason,
no, let me tell you,
no, it was distance...

oh distance, oh distance, thou art my friend or foe?
