Captivated

1,125.3 miles
16 hours and 12 minutes
distance:
a distance from you
a distance from myself

it is sometimes hard
to recognize the void
the literal space

we may not be able to physically touch each other
but you have caressed me with your words before my skin
and that holds a greater meaning
that is love

I imagine constantly the way my lips will part for you
the way yours will intertwine with mine
the way we breathe, the way we won't
I feel so eager- so desperate
my body aches for you, but I can wait

I know this is real
this distance could never separate the invisible rope
that is knotted around my heart
that is linked to yours

I am a prisoner of you
but frankly,
I don't mind
