Today

Today while I was walking
in the Micronesian Mall I
realized how dearly I missed you
when you're not close to me.
I never doubted that I would
miss you, I just wondered how
much and when it would sink in.

Well now I know, and even though you
are 3,798 miles away, if I were with
you today I know the exact words
that I would say.
"I love you, and I deeply missed you",
and right about then, that's when I would
take you into my arms and kiss you.

Three thousand, seven
hundred and ninety eight
miles.
That's a long ways away.
This is going to be
a long fifteen days.
Still in Guam
until July12.
Found a computer
in a library...

I feel your pain in this piece. You shall be home soon enough.

As with most clouds, there can be a silver lining!

Absence can make the heart grow even fonder! ~ and reuniting can be mind-blowing! lol

Happy reunion!
