Me and I - An Old Letter to The Rose III

 She made her mind up, said a lot with her smiles.

She told the truth and just kept going with the stories.
You know those stories—the ones where she didn’t know how to say “I love you” back, but my heart yearns for you too?
Maybe she was shy. She was and still is beautiful nonetheless.

I love her—this girl. She knows, maybe just not how much.

I have these sleepless nights, my usual amnesia, but now I spend most of them thinking of her.
When morning comes, after a few hours of rest, I still wake up with her the first on my mind.
How is she doing it? Why do I want to know?

A product of the Rose of Sharon—Sharon-Rose, my Rose.
Smile. Let each heartbeat tell you I miss you... Are you listening?
Let every breath you take remind you that I said I love you...
Maybe let it play in your mind every time you breathe...

Now stay alive. Breathe.

I miss you, Shae. Don’t know how you did it.
You’re an amazing woman—don’t let anybody tell you otherwise.
Though, honestly, for someone like you, who’d even dare?

Me And I - Half Breed

...half lover, half nightmare...half human, half seed of necessity #ART... I am a half breed,  half shark, half lion I am half day, half night I am the dark side of the moon and the side that brings you our hope I am the half breed, the hybrid - half your friend, too bored to be your foe I am half lover, half nightmare Understand that I am both forgetful and a genius I am a sage, and I have no idea what many things mean I am half one, half none... Half many, half an iota I am the half breed, the hybrid without form, inhabiting the very depths of emptiness I am a half breed, a fully formed incompleteness I am half peace, half raging madness I am one side to a coin, and the flip side to same coin I am a half breed, I cannot, should not be considered fully born I am a half breed, the reason you can say life is a process  because it messes you up before it gives you meaning. I am half human, half seed of necessity I am half bred; chosen by the ones who saw Diony...

Me and I - The Politician's P.A. (Andrew)

 “I know what you've been trying to do. You need to study me before I get the job, right? It makes sense, but you see, I'm different. My mind tells me things. Let me tell you what makes me sad. I hate the fact that I've always had to commit one fraud or another before I can become 'rich,' so to speak. My life has been one rollercoaster of hell to another, and the beautiful part is I don't know how to blame others for my mistakes. It has always been my fault. I was referred to you, wasn't I? Someone told you I'm smart—that's the reason for the meetings these past three months, right? I'm not smart. If I was, I wouldn't be this sad.” “This job though, it sounds interesting. It's a change from the illegal stuff. I don't like to need anybody's help, and life is boring. I like to believe I'm good at studying people. I know you are too. Don't imagine I said too much—you know me well. When do we begin? I'm ready.” It was rare...

Allow Me...

That smile, yes that smile… Do you have any idea what it does? Allow me, just allow me stare at you and get lost in the maze that is your eyes. Allow me look up to the stars and see what the angels so covet .… Those stars in your eyes. Allow me breathe the air around you. Your voice is music, did you hear there was a song of angels? I miss you when I can’t see you… It’s just beautiful. I miss you when you’re gone only in minutes. It’s funny… funny how the heart works. You meet someone, a total stranger, an absolute alien. Your heart does this thing where it just says: I choose this one. That smile, yes that smile… Do you have any idea what it does? Have you ever stared at yourself in the mirror and simply thanked God for the masterpiece that is you? I want to sing you a song someday, yet can I ever do any number as beautiful as your voice? I doubt it. I climbed rocks, oh I did just to see into how much you could mean to me, and I fell… Fell hard for you. How ...
