#WRITEPHOTO – Distance

Distance – Image by KL Caley
For visually challenged writersthe image shows an island across a stretch of water. Upon which you can see some ruins and a white lighthouse.

Wishing you well from a distance

What we had was something special

We were like mortar and pestle

Now I feel a nonexistence

Can we have a coexistence?

In your arms I like to nestle

Wishing you well from a distance

What we had was something special

Be apart without resistance

Perhaps in another vessel

Another place we could revel

Not bad to dream to outdistance

Wishing you well from a distance*
