Here
I never thought I'd be one for long distance love. I tried it and
failed at it before so I laid it to rest. My past interest wasn't
here and when I say "here" I don't mean physically.
I don't want you if you're not present in my life; if you're not
"here" with me I will ask you to leave. I stand tall today in
love with a man that is three-thousand miles away. I can feel
him here despite the distance. He is present and active in my
life. He is a part of my everyday all the way from
across the country.
I believe in love because of people like him; people who are
present, aware and interested in loving me how I love them. It's
such a beautiful feeling. It's a real feeling that is unmatched.
I met him at a good time, in a good place. We complement one
another and even though he's not physically here, he is "here"
and that's what's most important.

Thank you for teaching me how to love with compassion and patience;
I love you eternally no matter our distance!
