This distance brings me closer. I can feel
you in my chest, pump my heart, release
my breath.
When you cannot be beside, you are
everywhere to me. I see you
in the stars, initials carved
into invisible trees.
Not being able to feel you so close,
you become closer to me (youme).
I needed this distance
to let you inside of me. (myoue)
I'll bear my heart, wear it on my sleeve.
I am committed now
that I had to leave.
Maybe the longing is a necessity; you
showing me how much this means;
a thousand miles
won't stop you from loving me,
(when those before stopped suddenly).
I'll give you my love
unconditionally,
for you are far better than I could dream,
(deserve).
I'll do my best
to make my heart heard. Let
her speak freely, finally, though only
to your non-judging ears
that hold my whispers gently.
I could tell you dark secrets from the past,
and you don't sit there
feeling bad. You say
I'm beautiful for all I do, how I see
the world, how I see you
and all those close to me,
how there is beauty in all to see.
Somehow you manage
to see it in me.
