We spend the weekends together, and send "good nights" during the week. Lonelier than ever, yet loved more than over a year — You're the only one that knows. If I have to catch myself at least once a day to not let those three little words spill, I know I've made a mess. I can't feel like this! But feelings don't listen, dear. In just six months I know we'll be apart: "It's better this way", I tell myself. But why does it hurt? Why am I scared? A strange limbo I cannot explain No, not even to myself — Then how could I confide in friends? I cling on to the hope that we'll find our way back because I think, I feel, I hope again: All senses that I had lost the last years. But at the same time I remind myself, of how I did feel. Maybe over time we are just meant to crumble to less than friends and then lovers again, and again.
