"i like her..."
"are she..."
"i didn't know you..."
"...but we don't know how..."

and it is the same but better. dying light and fireflies and quiet musicians and the shouts of men.
and overall i am holding up just fine.

and we are different but still - sitting across tables and eating and mocking and replaying only during the rain.
and a life is being made to work and i will never understand it and never want it and will keep on with the cars the and miniskirts and the local girls with local boys at local bars.

we are calm and casual. we are friendly and wealthy and ironic. we are not understood by anyone and sometimes we stop talking out of pain or chaos or music.
we are going to travel and be apart for most of the rest of our lives. and i will live in marin county and entertain zoe and she will teach me about being stronger and you will come to observe my attempt at an individual life. and i will get on a plane and rent a car and drive to sleep in the loft while you work in a barn conversion and we will have gorgeous lives mysteriously funded. and you will be brilliant and my heart will ache.

i do not live in 'the notebook.' or 'under the tuscan sun.' but i have lovely leather goods and can knit up a good storm and i know that i will love you the rest of my life. will die loving you.

i - i will be king. and you - you will be queen
