Our Long Distance Love

Though I may cry and though I may weep;
I know you may be far but in my heart I shall keep.

Thoughts of you have made my days bright;
I wish to kiss your lips and hold you tight.

I know, at times, I can be hard to understand;
With all of the wonderful things I know is at hand..

Why should I let tears fall from my face?
Why not a smile to wear in their place?

Because I need you here and in my arms;
Because I know in your love, I shall never no harm.

Because as I lie in bed these countless nights;
I wish and I pray that I could take flight.

Over the miles that come between;
Over the fields and across every stream.

That I could rest soundly within your space;
Gaze into your eyes and caress your face.

Whisper my love into your ear;
Tell you all of the words I’ve wanted you to hear.

But then I awake, alone in my bed;
Thoughts, all of you, running through my head.

I know that someday my dreams will come true;
I wish and I pray that “someday” will be soon.

You are my one and only, love
This is the one thing I couldn’t be more sure of.

I’ve waited my entire life for you;
What’s a little more time, for something so true?

But I cannot promise that I never shall cry;
On those nights, to you, that I wish I could fly.

sending all my love to wlw in ldrs rn!! you will see her one day <3

I never thought missing someone could be this painful. But here I am: crying at 4 am.

My biggest respect to all the long distance relationships that can’t see each other because of the corona virus. You’re gonna get through this. Stay strong.

The biggest struggle of being in an LDR is that you’re going around and you see and hear people of things that remind you of them. Like, you see someone that looks like your significant other and it hurts because no matter how much you want it to be them, it’s not them. Sometimes you’ll see something and wish they were there to experience it with you, having an awesome day you can brag about together. There are days when you just want them right there next to you. Just to feel the affection, to get a hug, a kiss on the cheek, on the lip even just leaning up against their arm. Sometimes you’re crying so hard and no one can comfort you like you want them to because no one else can comfort you except for that person that is miles and miles away from you. All you can do is text and have phone calls, don’t get me wrong it’s great, but I am counting down the days until I can see you. Like really see you, not just a visit that lasts for just a short time, actually be with you and spend the rest of my life with you. Not sitting in the corner of the room crying over songs and things that remind you of them. Loathing all the couples that are so happy together and being disappointed by the ones that do not understand how lucky they are to be with someone but abuse that pleasure and pure honesty a relationship should have. Call me a dreamer sure, but you know I’m right.

One day. One beautiful hopeful day.
