UNREASONABLE DISTANCE

For lovers living apart separated by thousands of miles is agony, especially they do not know when they will see each other again.

In the garden of hope,

through strained

sequence of seasons,

each day yearning

for end

to such separation,

I wait for you,

my darling love,

ours a relational link,

stretched by

unreasonable distance,

longing to see

without the cold

mirror-image,

unable to fulfil

longing

of the other,

asking why,

how long.
