Distances

S. R. Mearns

I could never build
those words high enough,
to bridge the voids
in our differences.
Letters came, and between
us went, measuring distances
in happiness spent,
or in each others
corresponding sorrows

Those words un-spoken,
although ringing true
never flew as birds,
over far literary oceans
to nestle near my heart,
singing of love and lives
we should have built,
but buried,
down that damned divide.
