Distance
Read 'Distance' by 'Dorothy Parker' and provide your summary and literary analysis in the comments section below.
Were you to cross the world, my dear,
To work or love or fight,
I could be calm and wistful here,
And close my eyes at night.
It were a sweet and gallant pain
To be a sea apart;
But, oh, to have you down the lane
Is bitter to my heart.
