Certainty...
There are some days when I feel your presence so much more than others, where I can hear your voice, your laugh, and see the way you smile when you catch me watching you, blushing, but so deeply in love that you can’t keep from looking my way. The distance is easier on those days. Then, at times, there will be stretches that seem interminable, where the space between us feels infinitely larger. I still carry those things, on those days, of course. I will carry you with me always. But holding to them aches just a little bit more for your absence. Still, I would never trade them for anything. Any moment spent with you is worth…anything, really. One does not forget the starlight just because it is a cloudy evening. North is still north, and the star, whether visible or not, is still present, moving me ever onward towards your arms, towards home, where I now know, with unerring certainty, you will be waiting for me, just as I now wait for you. I love you, my sweet girl, and I’ll be right here, now and always.
