True Blue

Come to me in my dreams, and then
By day I shall be well again!
For so the night will more than pay
The hopeless longing of the day.

Come, as thou cam'st a thousand times,
A messenger from radiant climes,
And smile on thy new world, and be
As kind to others as to me!

Or, as thou never cam'st in sooth,
Come now, and let me dream it truth,
And part my hair, and kiss my brow,
And say, My love why sufferest thou?

Come to me in my dreams, and then
By day I shall be well again!
For so the night will more than pay
The hopeless longing of the day.

~ "Longing" by Matthew Arnold

*It seems like it's been days since I've laughed, I miss your face and the way you can usually conjure a smile on mine. The week has felt like nothing short of an eternity while waiting for you to return home. I'm such a sap now, sheez. But without my partner in crime things just aren't the same. I'm just as shocked at how I've been handling this as much as the next person.....or anyone who actually knows me. It just goes to show you how much I've changed. In such a short amount of time my life has taken turns that I would have never conceived but I suppose that's the way it goes. It wouldn't be such a ride if we knew what was in store. And as I am a glutton for punishment I wouldn't have it any other way.
