The word,
Distance,
Is said the same way,
And read the same way,
And meant the same way,
And felt the same way,
Through time,
And funnily enough,
Through distances.
But then,
Sometimes, distance,
Is understood in a different way.
Distance
/ˈdɪst(ə)ns/
noun
a separation in time
(source- Merriam Webster's Dictionary, 2017)
You'd think
That when
The meaning of a word
Doesn't change
For nearly a quarter of a century,
It would never.
But sometimes,
You don't need time,
To change the meaning
Of distance
From space,
To separation,
Between
Two points/dots.
