I run
knowing that every breath I take,
every second I pant,
is a breath closer,
is a second nearer
towards you.
I press on in my assignment
towards my target of 3000 words
completing my summary
and barely starting on the body
knowing that every word I type,
every sentence I craft,
is one word less
to meeting you.
If time could be sped up,
yet it is swift when we are united.
Why does it slow down when we are
separated.
Long days and short nights make for
long partings and short meetings.
