Ten Villanelles- Fourth

4 We started close but have grown a stray You're facing something extremely sad We're moving apart, but I'm not far away You are in my thoughts every single day For not knowing your situation I feel bad We started close but have grown a stray To reconcile our indifference I seek a way This is the first step I take on pen and pad We're moving apart, but I'm never far away In depression and sorrow I continue to lay Abandoning the former rapport we once had We started close but have grown a stray The communication we have is often gray I truly hope my words don't make you mad We're moving apart, but I'm never far away I am getting focused now and won't delay To know you better would make me glad We started close but have grown a stray We're moving apart, but I'm not far away

This a sad, but sweet one. Sometimes one needs space. But not too much space. Another powerful verse from your haunting set. I appreciate your posts and I hope they give your strength. Keep it up! Always, Laura
