Arms Length Apart

Arms Length Apart

At arms length

Apart

We drink our

Beers

While we cross arms

And sometimes

Our lives

Different ages

And different stages

Of where we are

In life

At night

You sometimes

Stay over

It’s comforting

To know

I’m still wanted

To be slept with

Or next to

At least

These days

With someone

With you

At arms length

Apart

We understand

Each other

How we

Work

What we

Like

And what our fears

Are

At arms length

Apart

I know

Things will

Never amount

To what

Some days

I wish for

And we’ll

Always

Be on separate

Paths

I like you

And would date

You

But sometimes

Life doesn’t work

Out

Like you

Want it to

I know where

You are

In my life

And in my

Heart

But you’ll

Always be

At an arms

Length

Apart
