Long Distance Romance - Tumblr Posts

Long have been the winters that have come and gone in the eternity between sightings of the one my heart belongs too.

A back once has strong has since bent low, a heartbeat flittering and passionate now does slow, the sand in my hourglass' bottom has grown.

Though I have aged and long since changed with certainty I can tell you her visage has doubtlessly stayed much the same, altered not by time or strain.

For she who brought light and wonder into my life is of elven blood, a queen of the fae whose beauty is equaled by none.

She did share a love with me and many an embrace but fleeting is the attenoktions of one who has seen so many an age.

Duties did call my dearest far and away, but of me she asked that I wait and stay. Quick would be her task or so she did say.

But a redwood does not see a drought in a similar manor too the sapling of an oak who will soon wither away.

Decades to my love of the fairest of folk would be but a trifle absence and little before had she loved one shackled with the mortal yoke.

Long has been my wait, and still my love and hope stay strong, that she will return to me with each and every dawn.

I did give her my word and to it I shall hold in the knowledge she shall stay true to hers before death itself takes me unto its fold.

Should it come that I shall pass before I hold again my Elven lass I write this now so she weeps not for our love still stands.

For my heart burns brighter that any and every star, it matters now how close or far. I only apologize I am but a man and could not escape her absence unmarred.

But worry not and do not weep, for rest assured her word my love shall keep. Goodbye for now and goodnight I long only too see your smile once more shine through night.
