Distance.
Far away your hand that once shook mine,
Lost like the wind blowing my hair so fine,
Graciously we meet after passage of time,
Smiles still cautious, eye contact no crime,
Remembrance of you in all your goodness,
Brings us together in familiar business,
Catching up lives we compare our notes,
Harmonious dreams, void of gloats,
Story after story shared so well,
Who adores you now please do tell?
