521.46 Miles

According to Mapquest this is the distance to a part of my heart. This part of my heart has been missing since I was seventeen years old. It’s unimportant how we came to be separated. The stars, the fates or the gods felt is necessary to split this heart in two for a period of time. Maybe each half of the heart needed to learn a lesson before it could begin its life long journey together. Each half thought it was ready for the ultimate experience, but Someone felt differently. It’s been a long fourteen years for each half. Pain, anxiety, happiness, joy, sorrow, hurt, hate and love. Each half has had its share of all the emotions: positive and negative. Over the years each one has thought and fantasized about the other. Hoping the other was thinking the same thing at, maybe, the same time. Have you missed me? Have you yearned for me? Have you dreamed of me? Each moved through life trying to link itself to a heart that seemed to be a fit, but ultimately never was. Deep down an ember of love and hope glimmered, but circumstances keep them apart. Now, circumstances may bring them together. Don’t despair, dear reader, the halves may be united very soon. What’s in store for these two is unknown, but it’s sure to be an adventure.

Listening to Don Omar. A fiiiine Puerto Rican man. I may have the vapors.

I think it's actually more like 530 miles. I live on the WEST side of town. You should have told the circumstances that first caused the divided heart. Even I would like to know what really happened. Maybe one day I'll not need to think about it at all. Till then
