It Isn't Easy, Is It?
How long will it last?
It isn’t easy, is it?
To be apart for so long.
Not being able to feel the touch
Of a hand
Or even a kiss.
But you tell yourself it’s okay.
The distance shouldn’t define your love.
It’s only miles.
Though you two are still only strangers.
People who haven’t met.
One day, you say.
We will be together.
But how long is that?
You each have completely different lives.
Will time soon tell?
It isn’t easy, is it?
When you lay awake at night
Aching from the pain of your insecurities.
Scared this relationship won’t make it.
Will he find someone new, closer?
You’re happy, I know.
Finally, someone who listens.
Who cares.
Makes you feel loved.
You’ll do the same, of course.
But how long can you jinx yourself,
Until what you have feared for so long comes true?
Wishes need to be granted carefully,
Even if this is something you do not want.
It isn’t easy, is it?
