From A Distance

How can I explain this?
From here to another
A wall stands between 
Being forced to not be near 
Only a smell or
watching with my ears
How cruel of the wall, 
let me stand tall.
How can I explain this? 
Is it really so bad, 
give me what I asked!
It’s not my fault, 
thats just how we act!
Maybe it’s all in my head 
I wish we were close instead
How can I explain this?
