Your voice was perfect for waking up to. I liked talking with you in the car, the sound of surrounding traffic drowned out your voice.
If you took your eyes off the road I knew you were making an important point, I furrowed my brow and nodded, urging you to continue.
I'd think about how much happier I'd be if I was married to Thom Yorke or better yet what if I was pregnant with Nietzsche's baby. I'd sit and trace letters on my knee. I'd trace words on my knee.

The first time I knew I was in love with him he spilled his coffee on the sidewalk in front of me.
The first time I knew I didn't love him was when he fell asleep during a documentary about the Holocaust. The second time was when I saw how he peeled a mango.
And the reason I left was because I saw a Stephen King book on his nightstand, I'd rather have seen a black dildo.
Excellent. You are a wonderful writer.
