Absence

It's going to be hard,
When I think about you all of the time.
But I know it can make us grow
Closer together.

Everyday I reach out to you.
Hoping you are happy to hear from me.
Maybe you are,
But I worry when you don't respond.

They say "absence makes the heart grow fonder"
So I am going to try,
To give you a break.
And let you seek me.

I fear that you won't,
And I will be lonely.
But I hold onto hope
That you really will miss me.

And when we reunite,
Our joy will be greater,
Our time together will be sweeter,
And we will both see how much we love each other.
