Thank you!! I will definitely share it with whom it was written for ;) Long-distance ain't easy. Dreams tend to feel more realistic than life at times.

I love how honest and descriptive you are in the comments.

I was scouring my feed for examples of abstraction, and I hovered over each stanza with the initial "ahah! of finding one, only to be stymied.

That's the best compliment! I have a history of using too many abstract thoughts without grounding them - so I am glad that I am managing to deal with my own weaknesses :D
