He's Worth the Distance

"You're smile's adorable."

His cheeks always get bright red when I tell him that.

"You're beautiful."

I always smile when he says that...

 

I want so badly to be able to hold him close to me.

I want so badly to kiss him when he gets down on himself.

I want so badly to hug him when he's alone.

But I cant. Because he's so far away.

 

So I'll wait until the day when we can finally be together.

Because he's worth the distance, yet he doesn't even know it.

So I'll wait until the day when I can hold him and tell him how wrong he is.

Because he's worth every bit of this pain and hurt.

So I'll wait until the day when I can say to his face "I love you."

 

Because love waits. Love exists. Love hurts.

But most importantly, love is worth fighting for.
