I don’t have to; but I want to be

It’s only December;
And June is six and a half months away-
but I’m already thinking about
how I don’t want to spend another summer without you,
Not completely.
Last summer wasn’t bad and we survived it don’t get me wrong;
But it was literally a lifetime before I got to see you and it sucked.
Texting you helped keep my never-ending wish that you were with me at bay but;
I don’t ever want to go more than a few days without seeing your smile-
Let alone three months and
I can’t help it.
You are a magnetic field;
And even from and hour and a half away when I moved for a couple
Months I was still constantly
drawn to you,
Itching to get back home and counting down the days until the next game when I could do so.
I don’t always have to be around you my love;
But all being away for a while did was only remind me of how much I want to be.
