Celebrating Distance

Why is that when there are so many choices around you, you end up choosing someone who is 10 000 km away?Does he or she fits the bill? Yes. What about the distance-o-kilometer? ermm nope.Your love life isn't always a fluffy cotton candy, it gets soggy every now and then.

Denis and I, we both live in the same city,an hour apart by train but I still feel as though I’m in a long distance relationship (L.D.R).We meet up every week but hey whoever said that human beings are easily fulfilled?:-) hahahahaha.So enough about my whining thoughts, I have friends who have been in a L.D.R for years and they are still surviving…happily together I must say.


They confessed their sacred feelings under the love tree,

Promised each other that they would last till time stops,

Almost 7 wonderful years together and still going strong,

They are like the unseparables,

Soulmates for life.


The love of her life is facing the battle of humankind,

She wished she could be there with him,

Praying that he would be safe and sound,

If only she was next to him,

Everything would seem better,

Life just doesn’t feel complete without him.


She saw him walking pass, he could be the one,

He seemed so right yet so wrong,

So she decided to take the plunge and make it happen,

Now not even continents nor seas nor hemispheres

Could stop them,

Cos’ they promised to make life out of what they have together.


It started with just a simple “I like you” that turned to

“hey, I love you”,

Could be long a time till they meet again…

They wait cos’ they know that they are meant for each other.


(wedding bells? We will wait too..hehe)


I would like to dedicate a beautiful piece for those celebrating distance:


The Promise by Tracy Chapman


If you wait for me then Ill come for you
Although Ive traveled far
I always hold a place for you in my heart
If you think of me, if you miss me once in awhile
Then Ill return to you
Ill return and fill that space in your heart

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
Ill find my way back to you
If youll be waiting
If you dream of me like I dream of you
In a place thats warm and dark
In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
Ill find my way back to you
If youll be waiting
Ive longed for you and I have desired
To see your face your smile
To be with you wherever you are

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
Ill find my way back to you
Please say youll be waiting

Together again
It would feel so good to be
In your arms
Where all my journeys end
If you can make a promise if its one that you can keep, I vow to come for you
If you wait for me and say youll hold
A place for me in your heart.


it's a beautiful song.Go listen, i promise you would love it.

I assume that I am one of the fore mentioned friends of yours...so, this is something for us having LDR's out there. =)

'I miss him,
I miss him,
I miss him.

So I let the songs play over and over again.
Some days it calms me down, knowing that this voice belongs to me.
But some days it hurts my heart from an angle for he isn't here.
I have him only in fragments, in tiny pieces that I must duly collect over the years.
Let them be my solid collection of memories.
One that can transcend space and time.'
