One Hundred and Fifty Seven

Dear Words,

Where are you?

When it comes to distance, when it comes to the impossibility of physical hugs, of the tangibility of holding someone in place, calming them, stroking their hair, being there and being there. When it comes to the distance that is university life, when not even a hand on another is possible, when it comes to the bad times, when words are all I can offer on a very, very busy day, when it comes to a limited amount of contact, when there is only one hour for me to give, words, please come when I need you. Please help me be there for them.
