It’s difficult for me to imagine the rest of my life without you. But I suppose I don’t have to imagine it... I just have to live it

If you cannot hold me in your arms, then hold my memory in high regard.
And if I cannot be in your life, then at least let me live in your heart.

It’s painful, loving someone from afar.
Watching them – from the outside.
The once familiar elements of their life reduced to nothing more than occasional mentions in conversations and faces changing in photographs…..
They exist to you now as nothing more than living proof that something can still hurt you … with no contact at all.

Your memory feels like home to me.
So whenever my mind wanders, it always finds it’s way back to you.

There is an ocean of silence between us… and I am drowning in it.

They say “Follow your heart”….
…. But I can’t follow you where you’re going…
