You think you have me just where you wanted
That you, through your consistent coldness, have successfully trained me to give you space
If only you knew
You have been more successful than you had planned
The space that is created is not in feet or metres
It is in worlds
The distance that cannot be traversed in hours or miles
The distance that cannot be conquered with money or might
But can be erased with just a vulnerable look
Just a pair of relaxed shoulders not carrying the weight of notions
Just a trusting voice that is ready to share the truest self with all its beauty and ugliness, all its might and weakness, all its riches and nothingness
