have you ever loved someone from a distance? have you ever been separated from a loved one? what was the hardest thing that you had to bear with every single day? what was the thing you missed most? the smile...the laughter...the chores you'd do together...the petty squabbles...that pout...that wink...those silly i love yous...the children's laughter
i decided to make this thread for all those couples who had to be physically separated; not by choice, but by necessity. for all those who miss their parents, their kids, their partners. i know it's not easy, but then again...nothing ever is.
loneliness will always be your companion; everywhere you look it'll always be there to remind you of your state of being. some people can hack it, some people can't. they say it's just a state of mind, but i know it easier said than done. you won't know it unless it hits you right smack in the face. and then you can only mutter, 'ganito pala ang feeling'...haaaay
pero everything happens for a reason; most of the time nga lang it may seem unclear to you. i'm almost certain that the lows you're feeling right now are also the things that your loved one is bearing.
so try to cheer up, no use feeling blue.give yourself a pat on the back because you deserve it; for holding on...for hanging on...for simply being there for each other. maybe it won't be long or maybe it's gonna take a little more time; who knows.
but i guess what matters is, you have something to look forward to. and that in itself, makes the wait worth it.
i just wanted to share the lyrics of a song very dear to me. in case you're not familiar with the song, just immerse yourself in the lyrics. it's enough to take that heavy feeling away...
You Are There
In the evening
When the kettle's on for tea
An old familiar feeling's settles over me
And it's your face I see
And I believe that you are there
In a garden
When I topped to touch a rose
And feel the petal soft and sweet against my nose
I smile and I suppose
That somehow maybe you are there
When I'm dreaming
And I find myself awake without a warning
Then I rub my eyes and fantasize
And all at once I realise
It's morning
And my fantasy is fading like a distant star at dawn
My dearest dream is gone
I often think there's just one thing to do
Pretend that dream is true
And tell myself that you are there
thanks for reading guys. :)
