ACROSS THE DISTANCE
In a town where mountains rise and shine,
Lived Ella, a woman, whose heart felt divine.
With cafés cozy and lights dimmed low,
She longed for Ethan, who had to go.
Each time he departed, a shadow would creep,
Leaving her restless, alone in her sleep.
On her terrace, she sipped tea by the glow,
Missing the laughter and warmth they used to know.
In her favorite café, where the sweet scents entwined,
She met Andrew, whose smile was gentle and kind.
They talked of adventures, the mountains so tall,
As their friendship blossomed, they shared it all.
“Have you climbed mountains?” he asked with a grin,
“I have, long ago, when my heart felt the win.
Yet each happy moment brought guilt in its wake,
For Ethan, her husband, her heart began to ache.
One rainy evening, as droplets fell fast,
A message from Andrew arrived at last.
“Meet me tonight,” the screen softly glowed,
Ella’s heart fluttered, her thoughts overflowed.
At a candlelit table, their spirits would dance,
With whispers of dreams, they found their romance.
“It feels so right, being here with you,”
But Ella was torn, for her love was still true.
Days turned to weeks, confusion took hold,
With Andrew beside her, her heart felt so bold.
But in the quiet moments, guilt seeped through,
For Ethan’s affection, she knew she must rue.
One night she decided, with courage in hand,
To speak to her husband and take a firm stand.
“Ethan, I’m lonely, your absence brings pain,
I’ve met someone new, and I’m lost in the rain.”
Ethan, he listened, with eyes full of care,
“I understand, love, it’s hard to be fair.
Let’s find a solution, together we’ll grow,
To bridge this distance, let our love flow.”
With plans to communicate, they started anew,
Ethan would be present, their bond would stay true.
But Ella knew Andrew still lingered in thought,
Her heart ached for choices that fate had wrought.
When she told Andrew, he felt the sting,
“Didn’t you feel it? The joy I could bring?”
“I care for you deeply, but I must choose right,
Ethan is my heart; I can’t join this fight.”
Though Andrew was hurt, he nodded with pain,
“I can’t keep pretending; it’s impossible to remain.”
Ella felt sorrow as he turned to depart,
Yet deep in her soul, she cherished his heart.
When Ethan left again, the shadows returned,
But Ella now knew how much love she had earned.
With Ethan beside her, they laughed and they played,
In the warmth of their home, the heartache now stayed.
In the journey ahead, though challenges thrived,
Ella felt hope, for their love had survived.
Through distance and trials, their bond remained tight,
For love knows no borders, it shines in the night.
