closer

there is always distance to be covered
between yourself and the other.
somewhere there are points
from where relationships may evolve and survive.
in the past, the distances that farmers could cover on one day
drew the place on map
for the new village.
we are now set on the map
and in search for the right distances between us
and between ourselves and nature.
this effort is to be endless.
still, let us imagine a fresh start, a new beginning for our settling.
we are not who we are
we are not where we are supposed to be
we are
we love.
