Distance has the way...

Woman
Sitting
Waiting
On her knees
For Someone
To come
and teach her how to breathe

She is not crying
Because she can't wait for her son
She is crying
Because
She can't wait to be loved.

She says
Do you think you know me
Do you think you know what its like to be
Crying teardrops
That nobody else can see
The type of sadness that will never set anybody free

Woman
Sitting
Staring
In a room full of chairs
And an empty
Table
Full of food.

She's not crying
Because she can't wait to be done
She is crying
Because
She never thought she would be the lonely one.
