Touching Down

The distance between two hearts
The distance between too beds
Reality isn't something you wake up to,
Not an epiphany, a slap in the face...

The distance between two truths
The distance between two desires
This plane ride can't tell me
Where I need to be tonight.

Maybe, just maybe
I can find some clarity
Before I touch down...

Author notes

I had found an amazing person in Kansas but loved someone in New Jersey...I went to see him, and well, this is how I felt on the way home.

The picture is the poem on top of a photo I took out the plane window (granted, on a different trip...on my way to Europe).
