FFfAW – Distance

I see the lights in the distance, your home. I’ve traveled far to see them, but I dare not approach further. Even though I am nearer than I’ve ever been, I lack strength to close the gap. I thought I could. I spent many nights longing for this moment, to see where you live, meet you in person.

So close, such longing to hold you in my arms, but I lack the courage. Once I felt you there, experienced the relief of finally feeling you close to me, I don’t think I could let you go.
