We Both Have Struggles That We Don't Understand

We both have struggles that we don't understand. All we know is it's challenging. There are days like these when we choose to be selfish and not try to make that extra effort to put our position on each other's shoes. There will be moments when we feel we deserve all the understanding in the world all the time everytime - no exceptions. It is hard, and it will only get harder. But it will always gonna be up to us when we start to realize that giving each other time, making the extra effort to help, or just not being argumentative - it will go a long way to preserving this relationship and building the respect we both deserve. I may not understand but I will always be here to support.

It All Makes Sense In The End

You long for the touch

you crave for the kisses,

the smothering hugs

you change your routine

just to catch each other

A few moments, that’s all you ask

Can we talk?

or perhaps at least chat

A minute or two, for now it will do,

even when six hours

would not satisfy you

you have stories to tell

of how your day went,

of how your time’s spent

you try to act normal,

to function like usual

but the days when you’re weak

you crumble and fear

if you can hold on much longer

you doubt your resolve

asks if it’s worth it

or will it serve you better

if you moved on altogether

you try to make sense of it

everything you’ve gone through,

everything you still want to do,

accomplish and achieve together

that’s when it hit you

no matter how far apart,

no matter how long it takes

no matter how impatient you are today

you know that there is no

other way but wait

because you’ll always long

for the touch, crave for the kisses,

at least now you have

something to look forward to

to get you by these rough times

and when you see each other

you’ll know why you waited - 

the shivering touch,

the gentle kisses,

the warm embrace

the love you’re too familiar with

you just can’t live without it
