meet u there

by Olivia Doan, age 14







I'm over here
Ur over there
Let's meet halfway

Or just stand
Stand where we are
Not get any closer

I know why
'Cause it's just too hard
Too hard to try

It's hard for me
And hard for u
But let's both put in effort
'Cause it's only fair

And i'll meet u there

Olivia
Your poem is an inspiration because it speaks to the deep human need for connection and also the hard struggle to get there. Thanks for teaching this old girl a thing or two. Keep writing.PC
