1.25.11

To My Dear One,

I am sorry. I lost my head tonight. I got angry. I don't like the idea of what you said. And I tried to protect our relationship. I failed as I have failed before. Looking at us now, all I want is for you to be happy. That's the only thing I try to bring to you. And at the end of the day, I love you. I want you to do what you feel you need to to be able to enjoy your life.

Yours Truly,
Those Jolly Lions

1.21.11

To My Dear One,

I was going to post a video of Simon and Garfunkel playing Bridge Over Troubled Water. It came on my ipod today and I just wanted to remind you that we are moving forward. We are making progress. You and I will be together very soon and we will be happy. I am without a home. I am merely wandering until I have you as my anchor. Maybe I'll try moving down there soon. But without you, I am nothing. I don't exist. I am a shell of flesh and bone stumbling around the Earth until I can find my soul. You have it. And when I'm with you, I have it. We will be together with haste and until then, remember that I love you immesnely and undyingly. You are all I think about. You are my better half. And soon we will be together.

Truly Yours,
Those Jolly Lions

1.11.11

To My Dear One,

As the snow falls I sit and wonder, as the chill falls down my back, how will I stay warm tonight? The body that I clasp on to is no longer present. I have nothing but myself to keep my warm. And I am not fat. I am not warm. Not as warm as the heart within your breast and the smile that melts away my sorrows. I can't stand to be away from you. Yet, through the foggy window, I see us walking through the snow to have fun in it. The memories of snowfalls past. The hope that I can be snowed in with you and only you makes me smile. But just because I smile doesn't mean that you're hear. And until you're within proximity to my body, I will not be content. I will not be truly happy. I will be thinking about you and how I want to spend the rest of my life with you. One day, people will look into that foggy window, and see us and how we love each other, and that would make them smile and fill them with warmth enough to get them to their own love. But until then, I'll just keep you on my mind and in that permanent spot in my heart and smile because I know we're going to be together one day and nothing will be able to pull us apart.

Truly Yours,
Those Jolly Lions

To My Dear One,

That days are getting harder. I long for you like the wife of a general longs for her husband at times of war. But like them, we must stay strong. Soon I will have you in my presence and there will be nothing but positive emotions between the two of us. We are on our way to paradise, my Darling, we just need to finish the arduous journey.

Truly Yours,
Those Jolly Lions

1.2.2011

To My Dear One,

Lines and forms move as I ride in the car. The lights of the city streak past as I go by them. I am in something grand. The lines lead to the corners of the building, and then down to the street. If I got out and touched them, they would have a texture. I could feel the temperature of the materials. I would realize that they are in fact real. But they're not. Nothing is as real to me as the love I have for you. Our relationship is makes me realize just how everything is placed in this world. And without you here, I don't see reality. The only thing I see is your absence. The space between my arm and my body in which you are supposed to be. The only reason I can bear the reality of your absence is because I know that I will see you again, fairly soon.

Truly Yours,
Those Jolly Lions
