Poem: “I can never”

I can never

seem to get close enough

to you.

Whether me inside of

you or you

surrounding me

the pull is too great and

I cannot seem to

be fulfilled

even though there is

nothing between us

but time.

There is far too much

of you for me to

discover in the short span

of a night

or a life.
