I have never met you, but oh, I miss you. Words aren't nearly enough to describe this kind of ache.
You know yourself, and I want to know you. You are a shining beacon in a vast sea of mediocrity. You are dark, of course, because the world is dark, but you're also so deeply kind despite it all. You may feel broken, flawed, but it's still beautiful because it's you. I know you're lonely like me. I know you care like I do. You are strong, but so tired of going alone, so tired of trying. Your heart aches like mine does, because you know what really matters, and it's just so hard to reach. This world is harsh and uncaring, but you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that there is so much beauty to be found in the arms of the one you love. (I want to create that safe haven with you. I want so much.)
I know all of this because I am far too romantic for my own good, and so are you. I know.
I know you're out there; I feel the pull like it's going to rip out my heart. This agonizing, ever-present, sweet, slow ache.
I don't know if it will ever stop. I don't think I want it to, no matter how much it hurts. If nothing else, at least I'll still have the pain as a reminder. But at times, I can't help but try for more. So here I am. Lighting my own little beacon.
I ache for you. Please, reach for me.
