For those who say that separation is easy, they don’t really know what it is to love someone. It’s a bold statement, but trust me, through distance, your heart really does grow fonder, through the thousands of miles of separation, you realize that you are missing something. Here’s a letter that I wrote a few years back, unfortunately I don’t have a date on it, and it was probably just a letter I never sent, but it shows you how hard long distance relationships can be…

A friend of mine commented on this and said that, what if it wasn’t separation in a physical sense… what if you were separated emotionally.. OR, what if this letter symbolizes the death of someone you loved… isn’t that separation?

You tell me… sometimes, these letters I write, are such that most everyone can relate…

Sweetie,

Life goes on without you here by my side… The mornings greet me and the nights bid me to sleep.. and yet, the sweetness of the morning breeze… and the sparkle of the night air is not the same..

This life that I live now is very much a good life… but easily not the best without you…

the times in between morning and night… are the times that are most hectic for me.. and I like it that way, because it gives me a chance to fill a void that is always present within this soul of mine…

Because as the day slows down… the memory of your love catches up.. and the longing of this aching heart begins to creep up within me…

Yes, I know… that someday we will be together again… but this heart of mine know no such words… it just knows your presence.. and without it.. I cannot do anything else but calm it down with the thought.. that someday… you will be in my arms again…
