Unsent

It's a really rainy day here in Los Angeles. Yesterday was one of the most gorgeous on record. Perfect sun. Perfect colors. Perfect temperatures. I seem to have gone to sleep last night in a darkened mood. Woke up around 4 in the morning in a stormy mood. Have been awake all morning in a gloomy mood. Perhaps my mood was changing with the weather as the clouds were forming and the temperatures were changing. Either way, my mood has me wanting to hole up. Stay in my pajamas. Brew some chai tea. Perhaps read a book. Or now, that I have been so inspired by this video, I may take pen to paper and write a few Dear Marcus letters myself.

Hoping the sun shines again tomorrow...




Unsent Lyrics
dear matthew I like you a lot I realize you're in a relationship with someone right now and I respect that I would like you to know that if you're ever single in the future and you want to come visit me in california I would be open to spending time with you and finding out how old you were when you wrote your first song
dear jonathan I liked you too much I used to be attracted to boys who would lie to me and think solely about themselves and you were plenty self-destructive for my taste at the time I used to say the more tragic the better the truth is whenever I think of the early 90's your face comes up with a vengeance like it was yesterday
dear terrance I love you muchly you've been nothing but open hearted and emotionally available and supportive and nurturing and consummately there for me I kept drawing you in and pushing you away I remember how beautiful it was to fall asleep on your couch and cry in front of you for the first time you were the best platform from which to jump beyond myself what was wrong with me
dear marcus you rocked my world you had a charismatic way about you with the women and you got me seriously thinking about spirituality and you wouldn't let me get away with kicking my own ass but I could never really feel relaxed and looked out for around you though and that stopped us from going any further than we did and it's kinda too bad because we could've had much more fun
dear lou we learned so much I realize we won't be able to talk for some time and I understand that as I do you the long distance thing was the hardest and we did as well as we could we were together during a very tumultuous time in our lives I will always have your back and be curious about you about your career your whereabouts
