socially distant
wearing a mask
longing to see your smile
not a rumpled cotton mass
behind muffly tones
I ache in my bones
to embrace you once again
like before we lost the war
socially distant
having to wait
fully following science at best
at worst we choose our fate
and if we survive
til the end of our lives
together we’ll be forevermore
emotionally passive
feeling like crap
commonly see your face
on screens that overlap
the problem with that is
it’s just not real
your two-dimensional form
no taste no touch or feel
socially distant
having to wait
fully following science at best
at worst we choose our fate
and if we survive
til the end of our lives
forever we’ll be togethermore
we are to be socially distant
we are to feel socially distant
we are to act socially distant
we are to live socially distant
we are to pray and love socially distant
we are to eat and sleep socially distant
