Poetry for people who could use a little kindness

Six Feet

You're six feet away
I can't reach for you
I can't take your hand
You can't tell me it's alright

It's been so long
since we've seen the sun
So long ago
since I last saw you

I thought many times
That I could go it alone
But now that I am alone
I know I was wrong

I don't want this
I want to see life
I want to be closer
than six feet

One day soon
The sun will rise again
And on that beautiful day
I won't stay six feet away
