...there but for the grace of God goes she

Dear gem,


The rain had ceased, we saw blue sky peeping out of fluffy white clouds for the first time in quite a while.  The city seems sodden as it ought to be for being flooded for several days but nevertheless clean and newly washed as a Sunday's best frock.  Am glad.  This pain will ease up.  Sometimes I am thankful I lost you for it armed me to face future failures and disappointments.  Surely nothing can hurt half as bad; if I survived your lost I can survive anything - BRING IT FUCKING ON!!!  No need to swear though, it's so uncouth.  But I never did care for the social niceties, neither did you.  What a pair we make!  The social pariahs of a materialistic and utilitarian world.  But reality is what we make of it, and to condemn the world is to condemn our very selves. Point, I shall cease this futile woe.  I am standing at a crossroads my dear, and all is dark before me (and all is lost behind me).  It's a good thing I am not afraid of the dark, who is in fact a friend who hides the scars and the infantile tears.  To think I thought that I was too old to be confronting crossroads but what do I know?  To be or not to be, to leap or not too leap this seeming abyss?  I shall reforge my sword and renew severed ties.  I shall see you again in this age of the world and you will be proud of me.  I shall live beyond your lost.  Pray for me Gem, as I pray for your joy and your sorrow.  



I remain,
your chackie
