[bodytext] => Do not think me unkind, for this Our simple exchange cannot bear The distance that excludes a kiss Where lips should meet, is only air. The space between our outstretched hands Defies their effort to embrace The contrast that is both our lands Makes distance often more than space. The thunderous roar of water spray Upon your shore is deafening How quickly it will wash away The matter of our chance meeting I feel –my heart is strong and sure Yet ears are deaf to waterfall So while I love you sweet and pure It doesn’t matter here at all.
