Distance

If we were drinking coffee right now, you’d probably be sitting across from me, watching me lip sync all of my favorite songs.

If we were drinking coffee right now, you’d probably get up and make tea instead.

If we were drinking coffee right now, I’d get lost in the freckles lining your cheeks as you talk about colleges.

If we were drinking coffee right now, I’d probably spill mine on my jeans from laughing hysterically at my own pun.

If we were drinking coffee right now, we’d be together rather than miles apart.

But we aren’t.

So I’ll just have to wrap myself in a blanket made of the miles between us and wait until the next time I can hold your hand in mine.
