You ask me if I miss you when you call.

You ask me if I think about you often.

The answer is no, I don't think about you often.

I think about you all the damn time.

When I wake up in the morning, before I'm fully aware of my surroundings I roll over and expect to find you there.  When my hand reaches out to find nothing but cold sheet and emptiness, my heat sinks to my stonach and I want to cry.

You're there when I'm drinking coffee and reading the paper.  You're there when I shower, when I dress, when I brush my teeth.

You're there when I clean the house, when I do the laundry.  You're there when I walk the dog or shop for food.  You're there when I drive, when I'm at work, when I'm meditating.

You there for everything I do.  Everything.  There isn't a single moment of my day when you're not in my mind somehow or someway.

I look forward to going to sleep at night...because when I dream, I can be with you.  I can touch you, I can kiss you, I can feel your presence.  My dreams know no boundaries of time or distance; in them I can be anywhere....and I always choose to be with you.

You say that I have no idea how much you love me.  I think that I do.  Because I think that what I'm feeling for you is what you're feeling for me.

Always, Graich. 

Always.

this reminds me entirely too much of what you had to go thru when he was in Iceland. The military just seems so unfair sometimes. they might as well put that in the recruiting slogans...

"Join the military, see the world, spend months at a time away from the ones you love... find out how much they really love you..."
