Back in our City

I think that sometimes we must say goodbye in order to love again, in order to feel again. Sometimes we must spread our own wings instead of living under someone else's. Sometimes the truest love we'll ever know is the one that just makes us better people, someone you just love to be with, someone that just makes you smile. It's sad to see so many people in this world so bitter about love lost or what has happened to them. It's sad to see them have lost all their faith in love, in what at one point made them so happy.

It took me a while to get to this point, it took four years to realize my mistakes, to realize what's ahead. And while I always thought I might end up here, I can fully say now that I am here, so sure of where I am headed, so sure of what is truly important in my life. And when I go to sleep every night and wake up every morning, he is the first thing I think about. As I go through my days, he is all that's on my mind. And when I think about my future, he is the only constant I see.

For a while I was worried that all my dreams would have to be put aside in order to be that girl, that girl so in love with the boy she's known for so long, but I've realized now that it doesn't have to be like that. I've realized now that I can have him and my dreams and that our love, our commitment, our strength will carry us through.

So my love, hold on just a little longer and before you know it I'll be back in your arms, back in our city, back together, forever and for always.
