Play Your Part
Sometimes I pretend that you are Sherlock Holmes and I am Watson. We kiss in alleyways and solve nothing.
“Perhaps we don’t like what we see: our hips, our loss of hair, our shoe size, our dimples, our knuckles too big, our eating habits, our disposition. We have disclosed these things in secret, likes and dislikes, behind doors with locks, our lonely rooms, our messy desks, our empty hearts, our sudden bursts of energy, our sudden bouts of depression. Don’t worry. Put away your mirrors and your beauty magazines and your books on tape. There is someone right here who knows you more than you do, who is making room on the couch, who is fixing a meal, who is putting on your favorite record, who is listening intently to what you have to say, who is standing there with you, face to face, hand to hand, eye to eye, mouth to mouth. There is no space left uncovered. This is where you belong.”

My mouth smiles. My voice says, "Hi." My stomach says, "Oh, it's you!" My nose says, "Wow." My eyes say, "You look quite beautiful tonight." My ears say, "I could listen to your voice for a thousand years." My mind says, "I would like to get to know you more." But most importantly, My heart says, "I'm falling deeply in love with you."
“Do not regret having lost yesterday, do not fear that you will lose tomorrow, enjoy today.”

“Peace. It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. It mean to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.”
