Deepest Desires



My eyes focus on the individual raindrops racing to the window pane. And it takes me back to our last day, driving through the canyon under the warm summer rain. We danced in that rain and got soaking wet, we then made a fire to warm up our hands. The heavens above held the most beautiful sight, with stars accompanied by rain glistening moonlight. There was nothing significant particularly said, instead we just talked and joked like we always have been. And now whenever I see rain, I think of that night, wherever I go, whatever I do, I can't help but always be thinking of you.
This week was hard. There's not much to it. But just when I was ready to explode into tears and give up all hope, my mom handed my a little white envelope with my favorite handwriting scribbled across the front. And somewhere in this envelope, between the pages laced with words, I found happiness. Happiness and love. And really that's all you ever need.
Halfway across the world and you still know how to make everything okay. Your timing is always impeccable, your words always perfectly placed. Two-and-a-half more years before I get to see your face, but hopefully after that we never have to be separated again, cause honestly, you're one of those people that can never be replaced.
