Dancing with you

    My dearest Sumner,

      Right now, it's so hard being away from you.  I think about you all the time.  Whenever I'm out having fun, I'm wishing you were there with me to make it even more fun.  Yesterday at Merle Fest, this group called Scythian played this waltz, and said if anyone wanted to "grab a girl and dance" to go ahead and do it.  Even though you weren't there, I closed my eyes and sort of swayed back and forth and pictured you dancing with me, smiling down at me and and spinning me around.   I hope you don't take this next part as weird or creepy because I want this to be a few years from now, but like every other girl on the planet sometimes I like to daydream about a wedding, and when I do, I always picture dancing with you.  I can see us, with all the people we love surrounding us, and you reaching out your hand for me as a song plays just for me and you.  Sometimes when I imagine it the song is "La vie en rose" and other times it's "Dancing Cheek to Cheek".  But the one thing that never changes when I picture it is your smile, your arms around me, and being with you in that moment and knowing that I'll get to dance with you for the rest of my life.
       I wait for that moment and for the time when you're here with me again and we can make up for lost time.  You're my wonderful companion, and when I picture my life as now and in the future, I can't see it without you.  You're always there, and the thought of holding you near again keeps me going.  I love you, Sumner.

Your,
Kaitie-girl

I Promise

Dearest Katie-girl,

I just wanted to write you for two reasons. The first is that I'm sorry for teasing you about the scam thing. I know it probably doesn't feel to good when I poke fun at a mistake that could have been so serious.

The second is something I've had at the back of my head for a while now, and I want to tell you about it because you're my lovely friend and Companion. I think it's easy to treat a committed relationship like a sure thing, and kind of go on autopilot with it. I feel like I've been doing that lately. But what I want is to keep fighting for you and trying to impress you and make you like me just like we met yesterday. I don't want to take our relationship for granted anymore, and so I just wanted to let you know I'll be investing more into connecting with you and being as good a companion as I can be. I love you and want to give you all I have.

Things have been hard for you recently and I haven't been doing as well as I could to help and build you up. Struggle is definitely part of the artist's life, but I think it's wonderful that we have each other, who know exactly what it's like, to keep our passions for music and each other alive. I want to do all I can to be your partner through whatever you do. You are my love and I want all the happiness in the world for you.

Sumner
