Love from a distance

he always sends me love.
and I to him, the strands of our friendship
sustained through years where not a word
was spoken, not a single letter, only
a memory, a Cat Stevens song that
always made me think of him and wonder
where he was until the day he reappeared
like magic, flickering, yes, but finally
bright and steady, my friend, Steve.
I'll take the socially distanced love, it's
as solid as the love that may stand in front
of you but that you never feel.
