work in progress (I could go on forever listing things I love)

We are the music makers, 
And we are the dreamer of dreams, 
Wandering by lone sea-breakers, 
And sitting by desolate streams; 
World-losers and world-forsakers, 
On whom the pale moon gleams: 
Yet we are the movers and shakers 
Of the world for ever, it seems.

- Arthur O'Shaughnessy (excerpt from "Ode")

"These love letters," my dad said, "I think I know why you are looking for them."

I was skeptical.

"You think you lost them, but you never wrote them. You are writing them now."

He might be on to something, I thought. But I still knew they existed.
