Push

And with a push
A distance is made
But really, was it a push?

Or merely a step back?

To make a gap
Create a space
A place where nothing
Would
Or could
Exist?

So a push
A widening of a void
Necessary absence
From one soul
To another

A blank hole
Forced and reinforced
Was made

In order to hold
What must stay together.

Inspired by endings of friendships...
