Long Distance Love (Poem)

Sun rises, sun sets, time ticks on,
Your absence felt, every day like a thorn
No holding hands, no long walks
No teasing, no banter, no sweet talks 

Chats, emojis and virtual hugs,
WiFi signals sometimes as slow as slugs
Exchanging pictures, talking on calls,
Navigating through the digital walls.

Late-night call, early morning text,
Living each day, waiting for what's next
Planning our trips, counting the days
Coping with this, in our own little ways

You're out there on your own, 
While I am in a kids only zone,
Always looking forward to our together time,
Savouring it like an expensive wine. 

Miles apart, but the heart knows,
In a world of chaos, our love still grows.
Though screens may separate day to day,
My love for you is here to stay.
