Within your reach

Day 2,570, 13:22 • Published in USA USA • by ASecretSource


My Love,
those last days without you were sad & I had a hard time coping with all those moments where I was feeling so empty inside. I was worried, I've even cried; so many thoughts went through my mind, so many " what if..." emerged. I was lonely & at times even felt despair. Then yesterday the message finally arrived & after that the call, which brought relief.
Now I am grateful for this experience, because it made me realize how much I care for you, how important you are to me & how deep & wonderful our connection is. Forgive me for having doubts during these days - forgive me for questioning your commitment during some of those moments. Sometimes I feel like a child - I'm frightened, I need to feel secure - it happens when a day passes by without hearing your tender voice & your cheerful laughter.
It is true what I've told you last night: without you I feel not being able to be "myself", the person I am, the person I want to be. When you are there, everything is so much easier & nothing looks unachievable. I want to thank you for making this possible with only your presence & I want you to know that I am confident now that everything will work out well. You are fantastic, you bring out the best in me & every day passing by brings you closer to me. I'm eagerly awaiting the moment when we will face each other for the first time, look in each other's eyes, embracing one another & sharing our first kiss. I am here waiting for you, looking forward with so much joy to take your hand & and engage in a lifelong adventure, a marvelous voyage, together.
Everything will work out just fine & all we bring with us will fit in perfectly. I believe it's destiny. I don't know why it took so long to finally meet you, but I'm sure it's the way it was meant to be.
Here is what I want you to know: you are the most beautiful being I've ever known & I've never met anyone where I had such a feeling of closeness & understanding.
I adore you & love you so much!




WITHIN YOUR REACH by THE REPLACEMENTS

I could live without so much
I can die without a clue
Sun keeps risin' in the west
I keep on wakin' fully confused

I never seen no mountain
Never swam no sea
City got me drownin'
I guess it's up to me

I can't live without your touch
I can't live without your touch

Cold without so much
Can die without a dream
Live without your touch
I'll die within your reach

Reach
Reach

I never seen no mountain
Never swam no sea
Drownin' in this city
Well, it's really up to me

I can't live without your touch
I can't live without your touch
I can't live without your touch

Die within your reach
Die within your reach
Die within your reach
Die within your reach

Reach
Die within your
Reach
Die within your
Reach

Reach ... for the sky
