Wayland Bunch Poet Villanelle

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
