[If I could describe the world around me]

If I could describe the world around me
so you could see the world around me
i'd describe the world around me
and you would see the world around me

If I could describe the world I know and feel
so you could know and feel the world I know
and feel I would describe the world I know
and feel and you would know and feel it too

However
I can't

The difference
is the distance
between us

A distance
we can celebrate
not knowing
not feeling
not describing
but being

together

even without meeting

Like this
