When words fail me..

It's both fascinating and frustrating what distance can do to lovers. At times we don't speak what's in our hearts, afraid we'll spoil the "illusion"...the illusion of everything being fine and just the way they were, that the distance really doesn't make a difference; the other times we supress our thoughts, scared that we will become weak, scared that distance will win the battle that we've been fighting for so long. Words are all important and it becomes increasingly difficult when you know that the hurt your words cause can never be undone with a touch or the look that usually says it all.

"I love you" sometimes becomes a compensation, sometimes a manifestation of our guilt..."When words fail me" is no longer a good thing...
