I miss him

As I sit here trying to put words to the feelings

that are welling up inside me.

How can words express acuratly the love I hold for him?

They feel dull and flat compared to the kelidascope of colors

that are dancing around in my heart.

 

I miss him.

I miss seeing him everyday

with that crooked grin of his, and wild look in his eyes.

The feel of his fingers laced with mine.

 

Without him here in my day to day life

there is a hollow place in my chest

this unbearable pain that spreads everytime I think of him.

It threatens to drag me under and kill me with tears.

 

His texts a cheap conselation prize traded in for his voice,

Skype calls, pure torture because I know I cant touch him.

When all I want to do is reach through that screen

and bury myself in his arms.

 

It will be three years this valentines day

three years together But two of them spent apart

with 8 hours between us and too many miles to count. 

I love him with my whole soul and being

and I know he will wait for me and I him.

I wont give up becasue of a few painful miles.

Love is stronger then that, I believe that silly saying.

 

I love you Matthew

ANd I know this sucks for you too

Just a little longer baby

And our life will begin.
