Love 2059

We’ll never touch
even if you wish it,
the signals are blurring
the outcomes vague
reality slips to mere perception 
better safe than sorry, we say.

I have become weak, unsure
so distance is my safety net
I have desire, a piercing ache
but safely and sadly quenched
so not to draw attention.

This will be our union
notional, disparate.

I love you.
