I miss you too

You are thousands of miles apart from me, and sometimes it hurts.

You are thousands of miles apart from me, and I wish you weren’t.

There is so much physical distance between us. And yet, every night when my head hits the pillow and I look out of the window in my room to see the night sky, I’m reminded that no matter what separates us, we still see that same black sky, that same white moon, those same promises, written in the stars.

And then, suddenly, it doesn’t hurt as much.

You may be far from me, but we still share the same sky, the same dreams, the same wishes, the same love. 

And so I hope on those nights when you’re missing me badly, when you wrap yourself into a burrito and feel emptiness beside you, you remember that we are never too far apart that we cannot be connected under the stars above us.

And that when you feel the most alone, all you need to do is look up. And know I’m looking too, believing in us. I miss you.
