Waiting For That Day...

I wish I could be near
The boy I love so dear.
But the distance inbetween
Always intervenes.
Yet we look forward to the day
When we won't have to be away.
When we can be together
& cuddle through stormy weather.
Heal each other's pain
& kiss in the rain.
Until then, we will always fight
To make it to that day of delight.
& I know it may seem hard at times
That's why I write these rhymes.
Trying to keep my mind preoccupied
Which to these lines, I confide:

The sadness in my eyes
The bittersweet feeling in my chest
Behind all the lies
Saying I'm at my best.

But don't worry, for behind all the sorrow
I wear a wide smile for tomorrow.
Talking to you sets my cravings aside
Reassuring me that the day will arrive.
Sometimes I hear you say "Don't cry"
I come to ask myself "Why?".
Asking me not to cry
Is like asking me to not die.
Though lots of tears are sadness
There are many that are pure happiness.
No need to fret
Right now, I'm the happiest yet.
For I know that the day is inching closer
& I'll be waiting, my love.
