From a distance
How long does it take hearts
to do just one beat?
How far could thoughts meanwhile flee?
How long does it take to write an e-mail
and how long to get it there
where you want it to be?
How long to gain courage to say
those three magic words
and them, if finally spoken,
to travel across the Milky Way?
So, if distance is what WE make, indeed,
does this to remote lovers mean that,
if using time wisely,
they will - at last- succeed?
to do just one beat?
