I miss you,
now that I am far away,
now that I know I won't be able to be near or touch you for months,
now I dream of seeing you again, of having you close.
Oh God, how I suffer, as if I had met you just yesterday,
hopelessly in love.
Why only now do I regret the wasted opportunities to be together?
Now that I am far away
my heart aches under the blows of your absence.
I wish to tell you, but insecurity destroys me!
The fear of a different reply from what I expect,
forces me into a painful silence and an exhausting waiting to see you again.
