Want is a Funny Thing

We've normalized, have you noticed?

I mean, there's still a lot of intensity there, and it's difficult to not make a physical spectacle.  Especially when all I want is to be held and put my head on your chest.  But, really, I think we've developed.  And you were right today -- if we were together, except for the sex thing, not much would be different.

I would feel less weird about texting you out-of-the-blue.  You know, because I'd feel more entitled.

But, I am more confident than ever.  We feel stable.  We feel solid.  Even after eons apart and the restrictions placed on us by our lack of privacy, I still catch your scent and get giddy.  I still think about my fingers curling around your arms and the way my nose fits into the space between your ear and your shirt collar.

I don't care where you go or what you do.  Be happy.  Move towards happiness and make decisions that, in the long run, will bring you joy.

This?  It's not going anywhere.
