People always say that distance makes the heart grow fonder. I believe in that phrase, as I’m speaking from experience. You become very fond of your memory. You savor in the back of your mind every moment spent with him and every word he ever said to you. You replay it like an ongoing movie, constantly closing your eyes or staring off into space, instantly taking yourself back to the tiniest of moments that meant so much to you. Nights begin to feel so alone without him, but you keep your heart in high spirits because you know you’ll be seeing him again one day. That’s what keeps you going, just knowing that there will come a day when your heart will be joined with his again. Distance is one thing that keeps us apart, but he’ll always remain in my heart. Can miles really separate two people in love? If you want to be with someone you love, aren’t you already there? Like people say.. together forever and never apart maybe in distance, but never at heart. Absence diminishes small loves and increases great ones. So what if the distance is too long? What matters is that we have the courage of love to cover any distance which dares to separate us.
Although my words persevere me to be so strong and my skin to be so thick, I fall down sometimes too. I have nights where I cry myself to sleep. I have days where I look in the mirror and cringe. I have those certain people that I just don’t feel good enough for. I have memories that just rip me to shreds.
I am not always strong. But the times that I am so weak always end up making me stronger.
