Shortest distance between two points is a straight line.

Of this day spent in warm cool air
with a million hours to spare
an opportunity as this so rare
do I count my lucky stars, do I dare?
what use this be with no one to share
for you're far away, dunno where
in this meddlesome life impossibly square
virtual words to seduce you into my lair
midnight guest snuck in my snare
only to leave. I swear, I swear.
and I shown you all, absolutely bare
naked within, there's nothing I wear
smiling through sobs, I let you glare
believing that you're mine, through that stare
yet I know, fully aware
this nightly dream, a living nightmare
universe ours that set an odd pair
gifting hurt, and you an heir
expansive deserts of reality fare
crossing paths in cruel prayer
dropping a tear, willing to tear
flimsy constructs that I can't bear
for all this though, you needn't care
for you're here and I'm there
