It's tough long distance and we die daily in our ritual rebirths who i met then will not be the same man who will stand before me in a matter of weeks it seemed that i had wished upon a star for a love that returned me to us at 14, the melancholy boy who drew cartoons and watched obscure japanese horror flicks , who cooked me dinner as i baked lemon pies and macaroons to add to our movie nights, i didn't know then , that love didn't feel like rainbows and sunshine but like a heavy day where the sky is riddled with thunderstorms all on the verge of breaking and none dare to let loose a single drop Yet this is different too , not quite the same innocence but a similar flexibility of the building pressure and it surpasses me, when i look down and see your hand has ripped a hole in my breast i've always been told not to let a man touch my naked heart and that i must guard it against all kinds of pain , but how can i ? How do i stop the rivets from popping off the chastity belt around my soul? How can i not let him in? When the cuddles are like molten gold and the conversation flows like wine and there are moments that capture all of time in one look But of course , maybe i am premature in my judgement, there is a darker side to you, but i respect death and decay and the asylum worthy thoughts of your mind because they are a constant in mine What is it i feel , is it real? we are both so young ( well you are 6 earth years ahead of me) ? has time really come undone? what is this new feeling of fear that i'll lose you to some girl at a bar who , lord knows , won't be able to hold your heart in the way i can , or maybe she can, maybe she's all yours and you'll break my heart like the aunties said and then i'll have learnt my lesson Too late , i shout as i streak through the garden , not a cloth on my body i'll revel in these mystic sensual delights , and dream of far off nights in far off lands i already know i can survive a broken heart , even when i didn't know i had been broken

Long Distance , can we call in some Angelic Assistance ?
