Are The Things That I Like, 2005
original written 12-21-98, turned into prose 09-12-05What I think I like the most about you Are all the little details about you That I cant remember, this is what happens - I have to try to remember and let my brain create these memories... Maybe we never shared any of those moments together, maybe I just need to think of moments with you that we never really shared.
I have only seen you remotely... I have never known how to approach you; I have always thought that I didn not want to act inconspicuous. But I have to admit, what I have seen of you, I like it. There are parts about you that are quirky, but I think thats okay
There are things about you that no one else likes and those are the things that I like. And maybe my problem is, well, thinking of you, and making your image known in my head, and making you real in my head.
I have seen how much you care about your work. And we may not share the same work but I like how you think, I like how you think about work. And I like how you think about a lot of things. And if your quirks are a part of a large, strange package, then I will take it.
I like your height and your physique and I like how intelligent you are and I like the fact that you are partially color blind because you know, I like to think that there are some things about you.
That are not perfect because then you will have an excuse to claim that youre only human.
I would like to think that you are human I would like to think that you are real because I know that I am real and this could be a link for me. This could be something that would help me to prove in my own head that I am not the only one and that there is someone out there like me too .
