Long Distance

Long Distance

A Poem by Rachel Landes

Can't pack 
For a life
Like this
This is amazing 
Keep catching my breath 
Don't know what to say first 

Keep the lights on
In the city of lights 
You have got to burn bright
You have got to be a light
Like fairy dust
And dusty feet
Forever and ever
In never never land 

Lying about my lies
Abort this mistake 
Do not mistake me
For someone else
Who doesn't mind 
Not using their mind 

Speak to me
In muffled whispers 
Whispering footsteps
Looks like I look like
Someone I know 

And maybe I didn't recognize myself
Because I wasn't being myself 
And I will notice you 
When you start being you

Trust me
I will be doing you
A favor 

Return
Is high
On pills 
Eleven
Something your mind can't touch 
Let go of logic
And dream to dream 
A dream worth dreaming
