Distance

I'm standing in the dark reaching my hands out to you. The tips of my fingers barely grasp onto you but just as quickly as I grabbed on you were gone. Stepping slowly trying to be careful in the dark wishing I could see just a spot of light through the dark. Then I see your face staring at me. I feel hopeful again but then you are whispering something..I can't make it out & then you're gone again. I feel the warm tears dripping down my face, I just sit in the dark and wait.....
