Too Much Distance, Not Enough Time

I hated the three cities that lay between us.  I didn’t hate sleeping alone, I hated sleeping without you.  Just because I’m the one that said goodbye does not mean I’m the one that fell out of love.

Love at First Sight?

Do I love you?  For a moment, I’m struck—you’re Jackie Kennedy, beautiful smile and perfectly together.  Yet something’s missing—your eyes.  Actually, come to think of it, your eyes and your eyebrows.  Actually, about 50% of your face. 

Love at first sight is difficult when you’re wearing fashionable ski goggles.

Jailbait

You show up at my doorstep.  I find notes in the mail where the lower case I’s and J’s have hearts floating above them.  You’re beautiful, you’re smart, and if I was your age, I wouldn’t have a chance.  However, I’m old.  Too old.  So I’m going to keep my distance, create distance walking the other way, because if James Mason, the guy who played God, couldn’t make a relationship like this work, there’s no way in hell that we’ve got a chance.

Look me up in a few years if you’re still interested,

How the 49ers Must Have Felt

You’re beautiful.  Every day I wake up to you makes me smile.  With you, it feels like the world is at my fingertips: gardens, museums, theaters, the ocean.  Every day is a potential adventure.  You’re not too big, you’re not too small, and you’re always ready to feed me something new and delicious.  I love how you’ve changed me, I love that your doors are always open.

You’re the best city in the world.  I might have to leave some day, but I’ll always come back to you.

Perhaps replace “from” with “to”?   🙂

Crazy

You threw out my clothes, you keyed my car.  You set fire to my books, you sold all my records.  My friends hate you, my mother is afraid of you.  The neighbors can’t stand all the screaming, and there is no chance we’ll get the deposit back on our apartment. 

Really, in the end, the only thing that makes you crazy is that you love me.
