We were once just kids
With big hopes and big dreams and freckled faces in summer streams
We were once just kids
Making out on your bedroom floor, with no idea of what was to come anymore
We were once just kids
That skipped school to spend more time together and huddled up in the colder weather
We were once just kids
That snuck out past curfew so that we could dance in the rain, and that was our virtue
We were once just kids
That rode bikes around town and helped each other up whenever one of us would fall down
We were once just kids
But we are no longer, that's clear
From the day that you left, you told me "Our life starts here"
We were once just kids
But now you're a man in a uniform
And I'm his soon-to-be wife
With just our memories to keep me warm
We are no longer kids
You have our country to serve for now,
And I have letters every night to send out
We are no longer kids
And we have cares and we have worries and we have things to complain about
But we still have each other and that's the one thing that ever counts
We were once just kids
But now we're grown and our life began
And I'm still hopelessly in love with you,
My United States Airman.

"My dear, when I talk about you,
I feel like I'm telling people about a character
From my favorite novel"
He laughs
"But my dear, I am real"
She looks up at him
"Sometimes that's the worst part"

There is a vastness within you
That I don't think I'll ever understand.
You hold a worlds worth of wisdom and stories
Let me climb into your heart
and see your core
Ill scale the walls
I am quite the adventurer.
Eventually I want to reach the peak of your mind so I can see what you are looking at.
For when I said I wanted to take on the world with you,
I meant even the one in your head.

If you were to ask me
"what time is it?"
Don't look at me puzzled if I am ahead by six hours
right after i check my watch and tell you
My heart lives on the 7 when we are still on 1
and those notches in between
Are in a space I constantly feel pulling on me
Because hes on the 7 and I'm on the 1
The 6 hours difference in what it is
and what i told you
Makes the world of difference to me

It all makes sense now
Why the sea always runs back to the shore
Pushed away
push push pushed away
But it always comes back for more
Its because the shore wants all the kisses from the pads of your feet to itself...
And the sea because it wants to hug you gently one more time...
And hell If i was the ocean i would too.
Because i know how beautiful it is when i see you on that shore

While this i may not know
You are the summer wind
Pushing my hair out my face whispering I love you
You are the sea chasing me up the sand
Just for the chance to touch me
You are the fall Leaves
crunching under my feet to make me smile
You are in the hot tea i drink
Kissing my fingertips the moment I touch you
You are in the heater
Kissing my nose after the bitter cold of winter
You are the spring flowers
Tangled in my hair
You are every little thing that makes me smile
You are why the world looks beautiful again to this once lonely girl

Even though I cant hold your hand my love
I can find it in every cup of coffee or tea I hold
And they wonder why I drink them so much
Feeling the heat sear my hands
Like yours do, when I hold them so tight
Even though I cant hear your voice
I can hear you in bits of every song
And they wonder why my headphones are always in
Feeling you in the notes and words
Even if i cant see you, I still feel you in everything

* As I stand in the water,
Ignoring the entire world
Knee deep in the waves,my shorts wet
On the same beach we had our first date
Where we blessed the sand with footprints for hours
When feet didn't tire because we couldn't get enough of each other
And now i stand still,
Looking at the horizon of the sea
The same one that we both love,
Is the only thing that separates us,
And maybe if i stand here long enough,
My two little feet planted in the sand will pull you back to me
Strangers look at me like I'm lost
And I occasionally feel like I am,
In the times when you are all i can think of,
Let me get lost in you, drown in you, Love You,
Let the ocean pull me under& lead me to you, its knows us both
Because the Ocean just isn't the same without you, You're my shoreline

I kiss you. Goodbye. I wait under you- watch until the plane
goes up. above my by miles, away from me my countries.
The gravel road of our driveway is cool and firm
the sand of the desert is hot and shifting and you are gone
You promise to be home soon- we both know you won't but pretend to believe this is a promise you can keep
you will not be home soon, if you come home at all
I miss you i wait for you i want you here
but you don't come, you can't

53 days ago was the last time
i kissed the gates to my heaven
her..she does things to me
when her lips part and mine fill the empty space
I go to a place that can't be seen
only felt
you know, sort of like heaven
you don't know it exist until you go there
it's been 1272 hours since I held her soft body in my tender grip
her...she has magical powers
when she lays her head on my chest
my body instantly relaxes and my breathing evens
76,320 minutes since I looked into her mesmerizing eyes and felt her return the gaze...
her...she is a reflection of my better half
those beautiful brown eyes are the gateway to her soul
beautifully pained but courageous and strong
4,579,200 seconds since we entered different cars
that drove away in opposite directions
her...she is miles away yet again
saying "until next time" is never easy but it was even harder
within days we weren't able to talk anymore
our already long distance relationship became longer
it's been 45 days since she started her journey
to become army strong
when her arms are wrapped around me
my body melts into her for she is my protector
now she's my soldier
1,080 hours ago i last heard her beautiful voice
when she speaks fears and anxieties
become ghosts of my past
and my spirit rise to new heights
for 64,800 minutes we have only been talking through the stars
(and well, letters)
no matter how busy I am my mind stays on her
my ears still search for her voice, my hands reach for hers,
and my heart yearns for her company
3,888,780 seconds has passed since i slept to the sound of her soft
breaths as we drifted off to sleep
distance was between us
but she was still dreaming next to me
Only 28 days left until we are reunited
her...she will be in front of me
and i can watch her cute little walk as she
makes her way toward me and i her
In 660 hours i will be able to see her amazing smile
her...she has a smile that warms my entire being
it is the sunshine to my cold days
the rainbow after all the rain
her smile tells me i am home
39,611 minutes until i can feel her legs around my waist
when we embrace
i don't think i will ever let go...
in 2,376,388 seconds i will be complete again
my world will become steady, nights will no longer be dark,
and my soul no longer lost and searching
for her...she gives me direction, purpose, strength, happiness.
In 28 days 11 hours 54 minutes and 20 secs
our relationship will no longer be "long distance"
