A Frantic Lovers Words
We are not defines by skype or video calls
or text messages or distance
and I won't let those things change us
or the lack of those things.
I miss you like hell
and I love you like heaven
but that doesn't change the fact that
this gets fucking difficult
or the fact that I get mad over nothing.
I know we are different and I know
this is worth it.
I know we seem crazy, insane, even unrealistic.
But I don't care
I love you I love you I love you.
It's worth it because I know that someday
you will find the birthmarks that cover my torso
and the scars that cover my hips
and I will find the way your spine curves
and how your voice sounds when you get out of the shower
and the way your lips part.
These frantic wishes fill me up
and swallow me whole.
My love for you saves me and sinks me,
but when I am down at the bottom I find that you have not left me.
Despite the number of texts we send in a day
or the number of times I hear your voice
I will love you.
I will love you more than I hate the miles.
