moose_tracks Sonya Hi. It's me again. I was floating in your thoughts for a few moments, remember? You are always in mine. You are here with me even now though you are fast asleep. I went to the post office today to send off the biggest part of you that was here in my cube-shaped bedroom for over a month. I'll never forget the deep dark green and the allure of the fuzz. I clung to it one last time and left some of my scent on it so you would know that it was really against my breast and felt my heartbeat on many frigid nights. I got to the post office 5 minutes before they closed. After I had given it to the clerk and everything was set I noticed another postal worker locking the main front doors to the lobby. I was the last person they served today. Fate had slowed time just for me it seemed. It was difficult for me internally to pack it away into that large brown cardboard box you used. I mulled over your handwriting and how you crossed out something you had originally written. It hurt to peel away the old mailing labels knowing that they would be replaced on the other side of the box or rather on the other side of the... I finished the second book of Lord Of The Rings, but I'm not sure if it matters much to you. I couldn't seem to put it down. It almost occupied my thoughts just as much as you always do. I watched Tenchi Forever again tonight. Though it was at an insane hour I couldn't resist. It made me think of you and times that I wish we had shared. Perhaps they are yet to come? Perhaps my destiny lies with you? Perhaps all of this shall cease when... It's silly. It's nearly 2:30 am and I know you won't read this. Even if you eventually do read this you probably won't have any idea about what I'm writing about. I shall have to explain again. These paperclips you gave to me shimmer nice in the night. Few people are able to recognize the beauty of such simple trinkets, but you understand that. You understand me. By the window the stars provide a very faint glow that reflects off of the necklace I made out of them. I attached a miniature blue paperclip in the center as a charm. You shall see it soon. You had asked me about what kinds I liked or wanted or needed. I often say I need nothing tangible, nothing static. It's not true. It never was. I want a whole kitchen to myself laden with food that I would somehow carve into a savory dish. With my luck you'd probably keel over after trying it. Lately I feel as though I've found something I lost. It does not lie with you but with me rather. It's as if a part of me has been rekindled. The flame that had died out many monthes ago in my bitter anguish now flickers in the vast dark abyss of my daily reality. What caused this? My curiosity perhaps, or my blind compassion? Whenever you are reading this...know that though my mood at this minute on this ordinary night is slightly jaded I cling to hope for you and me. I am constantly being reminded of my endless desires. It's a shame that now I realize I just might go to any length to see it all through....to see my destiny through. This much is certain though. You belong in it. I am not sure where exactly or for how long but you have your niche in my fate. We shall travel the world in a cardboard box if need be, as long as it's you and me. Now darling, I give you what you have repeatedly given to me for so many endless weeks. Though these words have no crimson petals to rest in your palm, they are like immortal flowers. We share the same beauties and flaws. These combined shall see us through. Amor vincit omnia. 020406 ... Fido Follow them! Follow them! But bewere the moose, For his kind are none to kind To those who aren't to him. The moose is noble and strong, And loyal to the last, Which is why you must humble quite fast, Before he heels you two-fold in the ass. The End. 040922 what's it to you? who go blather from
