I have never been the patient type.

Correction, I have never been the patient type for something that I didn't absolutely want.


I've been waiting for her. I've only been waiting a couple months, so far.


But if I think back... it feels as if I've been waiting for her my entire life.


I think I've been waiting for the feeling of butterflies every time she walks past, waiting for the feeling of me being weak in the knees every time she touches me. Hell, she can even get me to start shaking.

I've been waiting to smile that much ever since I was born, waiting to love someone like I love her since before I knew what love was. I loved her before I knew what love was, and fell for her before I knew I had to be caught. Thank god she has good reflexes.


There are obstacles in our way, time, distance, people. But I know the second that she is mine and I am hers again that it will be worth it.


It's hard to wait for her, but it would be harder to give up knowing that she is everything that I could want, and she is everything I want to do for the world. If I could do one thing before I die, I would give her a lifetime of happiness and love. I would make sure that she knows that she will never be alone, I'll stay by her side as long as she needs me to. I'll be here for her. And it doesn't matter how hard it gets.


But sometimes, the hands of my clock feel aged and slow down. in those times, my heart ticks with the speed of dripping honey. and I would give anything to make the forever that I would wait, just a breath closer.
