Today is my first day apart from you... and suddenly, I am attacked by a miserable feeling. My heart is so alone... my arms so empty. I miss you... your soft kisses... your gentle smiles that brightened my days. All I can think about is how much I'd like to buy you a one-way ticket around my world. Thank you for allowing me to enjoy the simplicity of your love... and the joy of feeling loved once again. You have acknowledged all my needs... my need to touch... and be touched. My need to speak... my need to just listen. You know my weaknesses... yet, you chose to only acknowledge my strengths. You allowed me to see the brightness of the moon's radiance in your eyes. Now... I find myself wanting you so much that anxiety rips my breath out. We so often question the mystery of fate... the mystery of me... the mystery of you... the mystery of us. I don't regret past problems... pain... or mistakes... only empathy from the moments when I wasn't fully alive... as I was with you. We offer ourselves to others... but in trembling, uncertain hands.... realizing that the crash of falling in love can seem fatal if someone isn't there to catch you. You & I covered many miles... yet, we seemed to remain in the same place. Sometimes... our love was so strong that a simple kiss could roll us over... and over... and over. In a life where people enter through revolving doors, we strive to remember those that brought us to where we are today. Thank you for being there... for taking the time to give "us" a chance. The journey from lovers to friends can be very treacherous... one filled with confusion... despair... and stabs of pain that choke and strangle. I wonder... just how far is it over you? After holding you... loving you... tasting you... I'm afraid it's a trip that will bruise. So, please... please bear with me... should I stumble along the way.© NOTE: ©Property of the author.
