Hello, it difficult for us to get
the dialogue started again,
our connection is distant,
and this is just its epilogue.

Hardly any conversation topics,
just boring banter
and with time, our interest
fizzles out like a candle.

How was your day? How are you?
Nothing more; no matter how much I like it,
Our relationship isn’t meant to be,
me here, you so far away.

What can I express all this?
Words of gratitude, of sadness?
I don’t know; soon it will be light –
Right now I can’t be more precise.
