My dearest,

Nothing is better than this:
just waiting at the departure
gate, an hour, no, two
before it’s time to board.
The anticipation is
thrilling, mere hours
till I get to see you.
So it takes more than half
a day and it’s a continent
away. But once we
share the same space,
baby oh baby,
then it’s all worth it.
(See you soon!)

Yours, ever and always.
