Distance

Distance spreads like a disease speeding along the miles to separate even the closest of associations.  The smallest sneeze can cause a ripple in the harmony. No one is immune. No one is out of reach.  

Distance will spread its wings and take flight, widening the gap till the long and the short of it no longer matter.  The reasons no more make sense.

Bombast and boastful the disease rages on.  Infection festers.  Malady ensues.

Distance claims the heart for its own.  Disdain for all others.  Lost in the miles and consumed by the disease. Ones own reflection becomes repugnant.
