Poetry that makes me cry

i just got an email from my girlfriend in Florida (have i mentioned that i have a girlfriend? i don't remember) and she wrote a poem to me.it made me sad and happy, i already hate long distance relationships and she's only been gone a week :D i will type it for you now...

We choose to stay together
Even though we're far apart,
Joined by the strong tether
Of the longings of the heart.
We could not face the pain
That giving up would bring,
And so we must sustain
Our love despite our suffering.
You are my sovereign prince,
Whom I will not betray,
Nor be your subject any less
Because you're far away.
Though rivers run as swift as deer
And mountains turn to dust,
I'll wait as year gives way to year
Because I simply must.

Aw, kiddo. I didn't realize you were in this long-distance thing, too.

It's worth it if in your heart you know that living apart is better than living entirely without her. And you learn a lot about not taking each other for granted.

Other than that, it bites, but it's livable. Hang in there, and you can always email if you need to commiserate.

Big sis has done the long distance thing a few times, too, so I feel your pain, bud. *hugs* Nice girlfriend you've got- you'll have to tell me about her sometime.

You don't suck it was just a little scrambaled and confusing. I like to write I'm just not a big fan of people reading it... I don't think anything I write is worth reading.

there she is :D

Umm, buddy? There is a chance that can be translated as, "I wrote that for you, please have a good explanation as to what is it doing up on an open forum or your ass is grass." #grins#

By the way, pleased to meet you, Aliza. I have no ego about my own writing, either, so don't feel bad. I like to think it keeps us trying harder than the people who turn out volume after volume of sludge for an eager, yet indiscriminate, audience.

Actually he asked before he posted it, so as to why it is out in the open would be my fault... It is nice to meet you too

Dagdamor said...

just checking, you can never be sure about anything any more... You could have been talking to your sister....

Dagdamor said...

just making sure, but Daum is not my sister, but the shiksa here is :D and on a side note, Cowboy Bebop was an awesome show, it's been forever since i've watched anything on tv since we had the Dish shut off.
