“A ocean apart”
You are laying heavy upon my sweet dreams and hope.
I hold a simple letter in my hands.
Your sweet words saved me from pity and sadness.
You wrote sweet and kind words.
“I’m waiting for you. I have loved you since we met at the candy shop.
Please come back to me. You are my only love I want and need. I love you my Johnnie”
Miles separate us today.
Your beautiful face is all I can think of.
I yearn to hold you and kiss your tender and sweet lips.
But I can close my eyes.
I can see your smile.
Hear your beautiful voice.
Whispering. “Almost time my Soldier for you to come home. For the vast ocean to disappear and we will become one.”
I pray for the days to go quickly.
For me to return home to you.
So my love.
Time will make us forget some promises.
But our time of separation is coming to a end and
I hope our love will truly begin.

What a moving, heartfelt poem. I was in a long distance relationship once – and it was the best relationship I’ve ever had.
