finepoint sharpie on paper

Sunset
Seated together on a lonely beach
Silent in shared solitude
No word need be exchanged
and in the space between them
… a deep sorrow expands the sense of distance
So that an arm’s span becomes
an unpassable chasm
There can be nothing beyond this point –
… no touch, no connection
No bridge between their sould
They must find solace in the brief moment
together
but partaking in shared solitude
