Fall is close, but oh how I wish Autumn was closer. My Serenity is too far away, and the divide that stands between us is taunting me. This distance in seemingly small compared to the world, but incredibly large when it clashes with my desire to be next to her.
It's hard being so far from you with no reliable way to reach you. I can't bear the frustration of missing you day after day, and only really seeing you when special occasion allows it. Time and distance are stretched, and they're rising my impatience and longing. I want so badly as each hour passes to spend it with you. My time is limited in this life, and I want it to be spent completely with you. I don't have that kind of permission, and that's a hard concept to bear. I dream desperately, dying to have you by my side with you hand in mine. I can't have that. Time and distance remain.
I wish that we had each moment together. I don't mean it literally, obviously; too much of anything is too much. What I mean is I wish we had the time that a husband or wife would have, where we spend most days next to each other, even if those days aren't all perfect. The life in the big picture will be perfect, even against its imperfections.
I wish the time spent opposite the ends of a divide were less, and the time spent together was more. I want more time with you, and I can't wait for the future when I have that kind of time with you. I can't wait to marry you, and to live a life with you. We'll be that special couple, even though everyone says we won't. I promise, I will do whatever I can to make this life ours, together. I'll do whatever I can to keep from splitting our life into our lives, and to remove this great divide from us. I promise, I will do whatever I can to live this life with you. I love you.
"This divide between us may be strong now, but come five years, it won't be able to hold its own. We'll crush the distance."
