in some countries,
when you asked about distance,
they'd replied:
" takes you a day if you drive,
2 days if you take the bus.
walking? 4 days."
i crafted a distance between us.
give it 2 days.
16 hours later,
you said it has been torturous.
i happily oblige to shorten it,
to zero.
he sat opposite her.
zero distance
but
zero conversation.
how odd is the space?
moments later,
both indulged in nania-land.
meaningless words filled the space.
he stood to leave.
she continued to smoke
so he doesn't need to kiss her goodbye.
she couldn't understand
why is it so hard
for her
to say those meaningful words.
