Long Distance Love Poems

GITI

## I.
Your absent gaze still scorches me,  
a mark from where your touch has been.  
The miles collapse like glass in rain,  
separation forges its cold chain—  
yet still your flame draws me within.  

*What keeps us whole when love's fire dies?*

## II.  
I search your name through midnight

Homesick

They say home is where the heart is
But you have flown across an ocean
You're something I'm blessed to miss
We will make it through all of the commotion

But when I come home, I'm never letting you go
When you're back in my arms, I'll be home again I know
A year from home is a lot, my dear
I'm

My Heart

There's a hole in my chest
My heart's flown away
My eyes tire from crying and crave rest
The hole burns all day

My world's gone sideways, now at a slant
I am missing my heart
But it stays with you while I can't
The pain leaves a flavor sour and tart

The feeling of a missing piece of me
Burns less than that

Some Day

My skin misses the feeling of your touch
Your fingers trailing lines of love
But we aren't as far as we seem
I look up and it's the same sun you see above

Space Between Stars

watching through the lenses
rubies of midnight sky
connected like red threads
stained with night's dye

thousands of miles apart
thousands of lives in between
the blind connection remains
like messages left unseen

minimal yet eternal void 
bridged with untold memories
the love and the hatred
the reliefs and the worries

stories to remember through years
of how the stars waited eagerly
praying the space in-between to decline
so

Long Distance Love

Absence does it make hearts grow fonder
Only if lavender love grows despite thunder

Of rainy days and shades of white wonder
Of what kind of kiss is amiss over yonder

In Zoom

In Zoom

In Zoom you’re so far away
In Zoom I don’t know what to say
You lower your eyes and shift in your seat
I shudder from my shoulders to my feet

In Zoom the world’s upside down
In Zoom you smile hides your frown
And I wonder if you’re going out tonight
The city lights are shining, so very bright

Then the

Long Distance Love

I'm coming from an empty place 
where dreams fall away and walls are built. 
The place where questions go unanswered
 and silence fills the room. 
As I search the words to get me out of this place
 they start pouring from your heart.
 Tender love kindness gentle smiles 
Laughter security warmth patience
 Building blocks that

Late

I want to touch you, but you’re too late.
We promised one another we would stop speaking.
To make the distance easier.
For months, there was the occasional text exchange.
But that was the extent of it.
At first, I thought of you constantly.
Dreamed of you, thought of you, stared at pictures.
But as time and distance worked against us,
I made

place where mind was reaching with so much ease,
eyes and hands could never.

Long Distance Love Letter

My Darling Man:

My heart demands I share my emotions tonight, despite the affection and news I mailed in my earlier write.

I shall share with sentimental fuel and, beautiful man, you know my sentiment is true.  We write of our love’s intense flame, but not how or when we shall see it tamed.

I find myself

Long Distance Love

In our distance is our dreamy closeness 
In quite fragrant expanse scented flowers 
In moon lit sky we seek each other’s face
In Milky Way many restless whispers


The sun sits on the leaves of apple tree
Your face flashes in a nest of robin
The wet grass asks me softly where is she
At the top, hop restless sparrows

Long Distance Love

Long distance love 

Okay what now? 
Are we suppose to put our love on hold because of the distance?
Do we hit the pause button,
And resume it when we see each other?
Would that be still called love?

Well our love is not defined by this stupid distance.
I know we probably miss each other more,
Whenever we see a

Long Distance Love

I never believed in love at first sight until 
I saw you. Days later I learned that you 
felt the same. We had a whirlwind romance 
and got married two months later from the 
day we met. We fell madly in love and we 
were inseparable.  

That all changed the day you got drafted
to

Rebirth--Long Distance Love

In low tones we chatted
On the steps to her porch,
We talked of the decades
Since I’d carried her torch—

Of love we knew nothing
During young naïve years
Of kissing and fondling
‘Til I left her in tears,

For the navy enticed
With ships and adventure:
I sailed away keenly
Aware that I missed her,

Each ivory cloud roiling
I watched sculpt her face,
And the foam
