The distance between you and I

She looks back down the road she's just traveled, and wonders if all the stops she made along the way were worth it.

The journey's been long, some parts consuming her more than others-- but she's never been alone, never lonely- not really.

The lights in the distance seem to be so close in the darkening sky, though she certain its been miles and miles since she's been around those she knows and loves.

What will come of the miles and miles to go, she muses.

Though the sky is inking into blackness, she turns to feel her way forward-- knowing that every moment until this one has been made for what is to come,

she hopes and prays for a certain kind of wonderful for her,

and for you.

There are miles and miles to go, but she's never been alone. Not really.
