WHEN THE NEW DAWN RISES
We have spent too much time apart. That much is clear, and painfully obvious to us both. I am sorry that I have not been more available to you, more accessible. Especially when you needed me most. I have wanted to be there for you for sure, but I have not been, which makes me a lesser man than the one I have presented to you up to this point.
That is not who I am though. I am the kind of person who strives to always be there for those closest to me when they need me the most, and yet, over the past few weeks, I have neglected you. That will change. I will ensure that you are happy, and comfortable. I will ensure that when you need a shoulder, mine will be there for you.
You scare me a bit. I am not sure if it is your piercing intellect, or the casual comfort that you radiate outwards. If I were to be honest though, I would probably say that it is neither of those. I think what scares me most is the way you look at me with an unadulterated passion. I have not experienced that kind of respect and love in a long time, and I am not sure how to deal with it.
You are an amazing individual; warm, compassionate, intelligent, beautiful. You are an artist in the truest sense. Unlike some, your beauty radiates from the inside, but it is also there on the exterior, a comfortable mask that makes you feel uncomfortable. Your beauty is all encompassing.
I have been away for a while now, not by choice, but by a stroke of the fates that has kept us apart. It has been a difficult time, but it is one that will soon come to a close. I look forward to our reunion. I look forward to feeling your soft shallow breaths by my side as we slowly drift off to sleep. I look forward to seeing you, to staring into the deep pools of your eyes, and when I do I will finally be home. And I will be home. Soon.
I will see you when the new dawn rises.
