I've said it a hundred times before and I'll say it again. I didn't plan on falling in love with you and I'm sure you didn't plan it either. It just happened and neither of us could control it. It's almost like we just crashed into each other and every single moment we've had together is a moment I will never forget. I have absolutely no regrets.

I have to say that I was dying inside when you said you couldn't handle all of the trouble anymore, but I understand why you did it. I know that you love me...or at least I hope that you do, but it was so hard to hold onto that connection when the circumstances kept you from calling me. I guess that's why I quit contacting you for a while. It wasn't that I stopped loving you. It was that I felt that the odds were stacked against us. I even questioned whether what I was feeling was real. For a moment there, I gave up. Yet, part of me was still there...with you...three hours away.

I carried on trying to keep myself busy. I was doing a great job until Kristi called me with the news that you were moving even further away. Then, when I came to visit and I saw you again for the first time in four months, I knew it was real. I didn't know what you were feeling, but I knew that what I was feeling was genuine. I saw it in your eyes. I felt it in the way that I longed to touch you. I held back at first out of fear, but it was almost magnetic. Eventually, I gave in and kissed you and held you and loved you just like I did all those times before. After four long months, nothing had changed.

The distance makes it so difficult and it's something I've never had to deal with before. I'm reminded of you all throughout my days. When I hear the song we danced to...the one that Brett played. When I see a truck that looks just like yours. When I talk to Kristi on the phone. When I see a couple walking hand in hand on the street...I think of you. I think of us. I think of how I can only hope that you will still be waiting for me in the months to come.

I want to tell you that everything will work out between us, and this is my promise that I will do everything within my power to make sure it does. But if we never meet again and this is as far as it goes, I'd like to think that I'll find you again in some other place and time. I pray that you won't forget about me and that this love won't fade over time. I want you to remember all the great times that we had together - and the many more we can still have if we try hard enough. Remember the very moment we first met, when we both looked at each other and the sparks flew. Remember our first kiss when you so brazenly asked me for after waking me from my sleep. Remember that starry night when we sat in the bed of your truck, embracing to keep each other warm. Remember the day we had an impromptu picnic with some KFC on that back country road. Remember whatever you can to keep this love alive. That's all that I ask. Just don't give up on me. I'm not sure how long it will take, but I won't let you down.

I love you more than I ever imagined I could love someone. That's something I will carry with me all the rest of my days. You are the reason that I get up every morning and the reason that I lie awake at night. I'll be counting the days until we can be together again...for always.

Love Always
