i read all your words today
i read them all and somehow...i found myself fighting the tears
not sad tears, mind you
these were tears that surrounded awkward laughter in happiness
i wish i could express
just how much those words meant to me
how the picture on my desk that looks on as i type these words
makes me feel alive
i want you to know that
i will wait for you
if there is anything in this world that is truth
that is it
i have been waiting for you for so long
and laced with a lie i told you one thing or another to throw off your suspicions
why were you so much braver than i?
the knowledge that
i love you
makes my heart grow tight in my chest
and my breath come in strange, quick gasps
and all i want to do is cry
all i want to do is clutch my tiny eeyore plushy
and cry
and cry
and cry
the truth is
i love you
that is the truth
and i will wait for you if that is what you need
