Dichotomy

Just me. Just you... and a thousand miles in between.

I've never had the greatest record for those who have loved and held my heart...

I never let it break me down to the point I couldn't get up.

But... it still hurt.

I don't know what our future holds, and I don't want to.

If I know, then I'm scared you'll let go,

and It's not that I don't trust you,

I'm not insecure,

But with you?

Everything is... so raw, and new, and I don't know what to do.

I'll be honest you scare me with your truth, because I don't... I can't find the words with you. You make me happy, and seeing your smile is the best part of my day. The thought of you hurting alone, scares me. The thought of you becoming bored of us... scares me.

I try, and that's all I can do, you're thousands of miles away, and you still have the power to tear my heart in two.

I miss you. There's... not much to add to that.

There were others before you, and yes, sea-foam eyes made me giddy, and the hollowness  stole every part of me, but you...

You scare me. I deplore being bare and honest and stabbed in return, truly what is the reason for it?

I miss you, and I'm scared to love you, as I don't say these words lightly...

The only thing I ask is for you not to break me.

I'll be honest, I'll be scared, but just know I'm still here.

On the other side of the river, and by the edge of the sea, I'll wait for the day our lips finally meet.

So... please, stay...

It's me and you, with a thousand miles in between.
