A letter written where silence becomes the messenger
Letter:
My dearest,
The miles between us have become both enemy and teacher. Each night, I sit in the quiet and feel the weight of the space you are not in. Yet, strangely, it is in this absence that your presence grows louder. The silence hums with your voice; the air carries the ghost of your laughter.
We speak through screens, voices compressed into fragile signals. But do you know what I cherish most? The pauses. Those fleeting seconds where neither of us speaks, and yet the silence is full — of trust, of longing, of the knowledge that even across oceans, we are still listening.
Sometimes, the world tells me that love should be measured by touch, by closeness, by the nearness of hands held in daylight. But I have come to believe that true love is tested by the void: if it survives the dark corridor of distance, it can endure anything.
I write this not to complain of the miles, but to honor them. For in their vastness, I have learned patience. In their emptiness, I have discovered the fullness of devotion. And in their silence, I have found the loudest truth of all — that no matter how far, you are still the center of my world.
So until the day distance folds and time bends to reunite us, remember this: our love does not count miles. It counts moments — the invisible kind, stitched between heartbeats and carried across the endless night.
Yours, even across the horizon.
