you are across the sea from me,

from me,
but if this ocean would envelope me
in waves that flow to you
then I'd learn to breathe under water
just to be less far from you...

this time 6 years ago, i thought i was in some pretty bad pain. the pain that came a few hours later laughed in the face of this pain. it was the kind of pain that you can't breathe through but manage to live through anyway. it was the kind of pain that transcends time. you start to lose your mind a little as you realise you can't even imagine what life will be like on the other side.

i had no idea what life would be like on the other side...photo courtesy of Katy Miller



...i was waiting for you.
