the sea used to feel like a void keeping me away, I realise it's a journey I must take, one to get to you. they say distance is hard and time is a blessing, no. distance isn't hard it is a measure of strength, you need strength to cross that space.. for you I would, I'd run, climb anything... anything to be with you.

you give me a light, a hope. you give me an inspiration to write these words. the nights are long and the days are short with you but every second counts...

every smile and every word fills a void I didn't know I had, you are the first person I think of in the morning and always, always the last person I talk to.

The first time you said you loved me I felt the weight of the world ease, I knew you'd stay by my side and carry that weight with me forever. Forever is an impossible amount of time to measure but I want it with you.

I want the endless smiles and laughing, I want the hard days where we're impossibly homesick for one another, I want the arguments and the tears, I want it all because you are worth the laughter, the distance and the tears.

you are worth all of it and I would give anything for a day with you here, anything to feel your hand in mine and your arms around me... for the first time in a long time this feels real and irreplaceable.
