Aren't we all searching for that one person to know us?
Just one person to listen in this solidarity. ..
I just want to be heard without saying a word...
I want someone to know me ...
Who knew finding that connection could be so hard...

On days like this...
I can almost pretend that you are mine...
I can almost forget that she exists...

I Was Able To Call you.
Another 1st in our world.
As you lay in bed half asleep In a hotel room far away...
Your sleepy voice answering my call..
So nice to hear you as I drive home from work...
Every moment with you is beautiful...
Wishing I was with you as you fall asleep...
Wanting to be there when you wake up...
I'll never have these moments. ..
But I love thinking of you and the possibility. ..
I love calling you and the breathlessness I feel, waiting for you to answer.
I ponder our moments. ..
I love you and I...
Or my perception of us.
Reality would be different I know...
But for us, this is reality...
This is our relationship.
Moments grasped. ..
Seeing you on your way home...
Just spare moments...
I love you in our reality...
I love that we both try so hard, but not enough. ..

There are so many things on this bucket list of yours and mine...
I want to do them all with you..
We do these crazy things to be together. ..
Go to Ridiculous lengths...
just to see you for 10 minutes. ..
and then we're gone again...
but you always make it better.
make my day perfection...
just that smile..
so we check off these bucket list items each time I see you...
standing in the woods with you is my favorite place...
I want to do everything with you...

E.J.M.

You called to say I love you...
It's been two weeks since I have heard from you....
You called to reassure me that you meant what you said...
That you want to change your life...
You want me in it...
You called to remind me that despite our space. ..
You love me no less today...
You called me to tell me that tomorrow I can call you....
You called me to say I love you...
And I couldn't breathe and my heart is racing. ..
And I love you no less...

E.J.M.

I fell in love as you fall asleep. ..
Slowly and then all at once. ..

Not knowing is the hardest part...
The hardest part of us...
Not knowing if we'll ever speak again. ..
Not knowing if we are over. ..
Not knowing how you are. ..
How you feel...
Just empty space now...
