Day 546 - Three Years

I could tell you weren't an angel, from the angle, I was watching from.
You cursed so loud, drinking big gulps down, of coke and whiskey.
It's wasn't a treat, being in my seat, just watching cigarettes burn down.
You called me out, I wanted to shout, "Go fuck yourself."
I held it in, because there's something about sin that's so damn sexy.

I was a newly free man, with no real plans, until we walked outside that night.
It was time to take a chance, learn to dance, between a new girl's feet.
I kissed your lips, it was like taking a sip, of the sweetest tasting wine.
Your body so warm and tight, it just felt right, so I tangled it all up in mine.

Now here we are, still miles apart, from where we want to be.
Love and trust, are more powerful than lust, when it comes to you and me.
I pray for the day, I can see your face, every time I wake from a sleep.
I'm not sure from where you fell, but you're my angel now and I wouldn't want it any other way.

Day 543 - Rare

You're a rare breed,
A specimen few will find,
Running wild and free.

Day 542 - It's Our Reality

It's not a telephone ring,
But it sounds like singing,
The way Skype pings.

I know what's waiting for me,
Just click on the green,
A pretty face there to see.

I send her kisses from my lips,
On her bed she always sits,
Entertaining me with her wit.

We share thoughts of our days,
Who did what to start the melee,
Listening mostly to every word we say,

Sometimes we sit in silent time,
Acting as if we are mimes,
Playing games, seems like such a crime.

We have only hours to talk,
No hand in hand walks,
At the mercy of the clock.

I know I'll see you in flesh soon,
Until then, we'll continue to swoon,
Making our love shine bright as the moon. 

Day 541 - One Day

The clock ticks,
All we can do is wait.
Patience fills our bodies,
But does little to fill the void.
I reach for you every night,
Hands fill with emptiness.
We lack the human touch,
Emotional eruptions and sparks.
I miss the little moments,
Sharing in each other's joy.
I promise one day we will have it all,
Kisses in the morning, I love you at night.  

Day 540 - It's Simple

You usher happiness in to my life every day,
Placing smiles on my face,
Filling my soul with laughter
And beating my heart with love.

Day 535 - Defining Long Distance Love

I am not sure who wrote this, but it echoes so true about our long distance love.

Long distance relationship aren’t always ideal. In fact, they’re really tough. You spend countless of hours just talking through a phone or through a screen. You can’t see the person when you want to, or when you most need them. You can’t hug, you can’t hold hands, you can’t kiss. You lose the intimacy in a physical sense, but then, your relationship becomes based on each other and nothing else.

You learn to communicate,because a long-distance relationship without communication it's nothing.

You learn to trust, because you can’t always see or know everything the person is doing.

You learn to sacrifice, because someone’s always going to lose a bit of sleep from the time difference.

And lastly, you learn to appreciate.

So often, we take for granted the people and relationships in our lives because we think they’ll always be there, but when you only have a limited amount of time with a person, you learn to appreciate and cherish every single moment you have with them.

When you finally see that person after weeks or months of seeing them only through a computer screen, it is one of the greatest feelings in the world. When you’ve waited for something so long and you finally have it, you cherish it. 

The key to a long-distance relationship is faith. If both of you are not willing to give up, if both of you are willing to stand up and still try after every time one of you or both of you fall.

“Distance isn’t for the fearful, it’s for the bold." It’s for those who are willing to spend a lot of time alone in exchange for the little time with the one they love. It’s for knowing a good thing when they see it, even if they don’t see it nearly enough.

Day 530 - Bless
