Distance

Distance makes the heart grow fonder

With you gone, I often pine and ponder

For you and your stupid talks

And together taken long walks.

With you around, I never thought of you.

But with you gone, that's all I do.

It is rightly said that you learn

The real value of someone when they're gone.

It wasn't like we were always together,

But your absence makes me wonder

If we were really so close and dependent on each other.

Or is it just me getting lonelier?

Do you feel the same there

As I'm feeling here?

I now realize the true meaning

Of what was just a saying

That distance, age, and height are mere numbers surreal

When you fall in love for real.
