six foot five
with an award winning smile.
a voice that could melt hearts,
that surely melts mine.

and here i am,
almost three in the morning.
and i know he came around
for some reason.

a good reason.

my life had fallen dark
after losing my last love.
but i guess my new man,
he's a gift from above.

he's changing my life,
and yes, for the better.
being with him will be
the end of my inner strife.

while he does live far,
my life will be going through changes.
over nine hundred miles away,
at, least that's by car.

but listen here my love,
my heart is wherever you are.
i'm happy for the first time in a long time.

You’re my girlfriend
And I’m your boyfriend
I wish I could be with you right now.
But I know that’s something they won’t allow.
I know we’re far away now.
But we’ll make this work somehow.
Your love for me is undying
That’s why I’m gonna keep on trying
To push myself, even when I’m blue
Until the day I sit next to you.
I love you.

“Space
The Final Frontier”
Planets, stars, the moon, the sun

Now I won’t write some cliche about how the sun dies every night to let the moon live
Or how the moon only shines because it reflects the sun's light
Or just about how awesome the sun is
and how it keeps us alive

But I will write about how beautiful a full moon is on a cold dark night
So big, you could almost touch it
Except
It is still so far away

Sometimes I see the moon
And burst into tears because
I cannot feel the moon
Only the cold chill of night

The moon is an art piece
You could call him god's masterpiece
Untouchable,
Indescribably beautiful

The moon and its power over the ocean
Controlling its tides
Sometimes strong
Sometimes weak
Always present
Its as if the moon and ocean
Have a commitment
That is really forever

The moon- a chunk of the earth
That just strayed
A little too far from home

The moon and his many phases
Yet he is still one in the same

The moon- a contradiction
Hiding away
Before showing his true face

But let me tell you a secret
This isn't about the moon
This is about my heart,
Being four thousand eight hundred and five miles from its home
A whole different country
So far out of reach
A moon, For only my eyes to see

My body burns
My eyes roll to the back of my head
My arms twitch
My legs quake
My head snaps back
My breath is sharp and quivering
My moaning swells
You have ruined me
Despite the absence of your touch
You do this to me
ashley lingy Jan 2018
I have yet
To feel your mouth
The curve of your back
The scruff of your beard

I have yet
To see your brown eyes in the sunlight
To see each line in your face
To see your breath fog up in the cold

Soon, I will
Touch you
Taste you

My heart flutters as that day grows closer

I wonder if I will be able to stay standing
When you are finally...
Finally
In the flesh
Right in front of me.

When you left, you had your reasons,
I whispered, “I understand.”
But deep down, I don’t.
My fault, my regret,
I’m still caught in the why,
Lost in overthinking.

I loved you
More than I loved myself,
Sacrificed all I had,
Thinking, “I’ll be fine.”
But now, I ache for your arms,
And all I feel is cold and blue.

Your smile,
I crave it so much,
Staring at your photos,
Counting the countless times
I’ve tried to remember
How it felt.
Where are you now?
Will you ever return?

I wait—patient,
Though I have little to cling to,
No promises, no guarantees.
I’m still tangled in your spell,
Blinded by the echoes of your words.

They say I’m foolish,
For believing in your promises,
But I’m in love with the illusion you gave me.
Please don’t wake me up,
Not until I uncover
The truth that you’ve already left me behind.

God once gave sinners grace,
So who am I to hold back?
How many chances should I give?
I’m already lost,
Insanely in love with a fool.

1,116 miles separates your flesh from mine
but i still feel your warmth
in the palms of my hands
in the pit of my stomach
in the space between my legs.
cold nights remind me of the space between us
but i've never felt so close to someone.
i swear if i'm lucky
i dream of you,
like a ghost,
crawling in through my window
into my sheets -
lips crawling across my jaw and
fingers crawling up my thighs.

      In contrary of the distance we take.
          Goodbyes are just as hard to make.
        
          I wish the cold will stay away from our hearts.
          It’s our toughest decision we’ve made - being apart.

          I give to you a piece of my soul for you to hold.
          You give yours, I cherish like gold.
        
          Three years is a short time away from each other,
          Yet as long as our hearts are entwine together
          Our love is as sweet as forever.

"does long distance relationship really last? I think it does for some people, but it is not for everyone. I guess it really depends how stretchable your love is..." ~ pax

it was a prompt for my little book jiffy's love.
