Distant Loves

I have a distant love

She is the best love that I have ever known

The the distance does not make it easy

The love just makes it necessary

For how does one give up on the best love that one has ever known

I haven't any idea nor desire to find out

I'd much rather love distantly than not at all

The distance melts away with a sweet memory of the love that we share

I yearn to be her every day of my life

Even though I know that it's best to keep my distance

And still I want to rush right in

But I have to remind myself better a distant love than a distant memory
