But you are there, at least, and that's what makes it okay. |

Loving someone from a long distance is a bit like believing in God. Somedays it feels so present and real and unquestionable, and other days it feels like Plath's "Mad Girl's Love Song": I think I made you up inside my head.
But I never seem to have the suspicion or jealousy that other people complain about sometimes in a long-distance relationship. I never doubt that I'm cared for, never fear that you're playing around or lying to me. It's just that the distance sometimes makes you (or me) feel so tenuous as to be almost nonexistant. Are you really there? It's like you're just a shadow. Your words always come from so far away. |
