This is for every person who’s lover is miles away, for whatever reason: serving our country, attending school, or just living further than simple driving distance. For all those phone calls late at night where you’ve telling each other about your day, wishing you could have been there to experience it with them. All those packages or letters you send and receive, so many that the lady at the post office will know you by name. For all those nights you you yearn for their touch, they’re warm embrace, just to feel their hand in yours would be would be a reward. You know that the complaining and the crying won’t change a thing, you’ll still be here and they will still be there. You know that no one told you it would be easy and you overlooked the one who said you two were crazy, but that’s what love does to you it makes you crazy. Friends don’t understand; they complain about their significant other being away for a few days and you go months and years on end not knowing when you’ll be able to hold them in your arms again. So here’s to all of your strength, commitment, trust and love. No matter the amount of miles nothing can stand between between true love. Have hope, because one day you will see them again and they’ll make you happier than you have ever been in your entire life, you’ll know it was worth the wait. Hold the memories in your heart when u cant hold their hand, both of you struggle, so help one another reassure each other that distance will only make love grow stronger. Even limited days of being in their arms is worth the months of waiting, and when they leave you’ll know it’s not a “goodbye” it’s just “see ya later”
Here’s to all of you in long distance relationships it takes real trust, real commitment, and two strong lovers willing to go the distance, to all you I praise you and your love. It’s not easy I know. Times may be hard but they could always be worst hold on to your love, because you’ve found something people search their whole lives for and that alone should be enough. Here’s to you.
