      Love Letters

      Mar 7, 2022

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      “BUT WHAT MUST I give you in return?” I ask, suspicious. “Nothing,” she replies. “Well. Next to nothing.” She has offered me wings, beautiful, silvery wings. And I am not mad, so I intend to accept. But I’m also not a fool. I touch a feather. Delicat

      Part 1

      50

      I am the starshine of the night,

      I light the night bright,

      I am a breathtaking sight

      51

      Dropped you off just a little after midnight,

      I told you baby goodnight,

      As I held you one last time real tight,

      It didn’t feel right,

      To say goodbye tonight

      52

      This is only the start,

      It’s time for us to part,

      Put a blade through my heart,

      You’ve been tearing me apart,

      I’m no longer a piece of art

      53

      Seductive child with your malicious ways,

      I wish that you would leave your dark days.

      You who are misunderstood in all you do,

      Able to bitter-sweetly deceive the best of us too.

      54

      I see your face in my mind as I drive away,

      Thinking so much I drove for a day,

      When I finally pulled over I, was in Monterey,

      I spent the day at the bay,

      That night looked up at the milky way,

      As your face finally started to fade away

      55

      Her name is Noelle,

      She’s a Southern Belle,

      She put me under her spell,

      Spend all night raising hell,

      She wanted to give him a proper farewell,

      His name was Darnell

      56

      Twisted limbs sagging in despair,

      Shading the children and their Au Pair,

      When what came along, but a big brown bear,

      All they could do was sit and stare,

      As that animal rode away on a great white mare

      57

      Fishing in a pool of Neverland,

      Isn’t it grand?,

      Won’t you take my hand?

      Come with me to this glorious fantasy land

      58

      I threw a wish in the well,

      Put you under my spell,

      Met you at the motel,

      But then you fell,

      For a girl named Rochelle,

      I’ll see you both in Hell

      59

      Summer after high-school when we first met,

      She was a long haired brunette,

      We drove around in my Chevette,

      She was Becca and me I’m Brett,

      I always wake up in a cold sweat.

      I always see her silhouette,

      I did something I regret,

      The day I raced Chet,

      I always thought of him as a threat,

      I had to win that bet,

      I didn’t know he had a Corvette

      60

      Elevator buttons and morning air,

      Always striving to be a billionaire,

      It’s hard I swear,

      Work always hustles in Times Square

      61

      Beauty queen of only eighteen,

      Running around with a guy named Dean,

      They always made a big scene,

      When he was on the big screen

      62

      I’m not a perfect person,

      I’ve done
