Dear Starry-Eyed Romantic,

Embody the eccentric artist every once in a while. Get busy. Let life take over. A chaotic calendar reflects an abundant lifestyle. Checklists in desk drawers. Unfinished podcast episodes. Collections of sketches. Your space looking the way it sounds to trail off mid-sentence – lived in and quickly forgotten. Get up in a hurry to go meet somebody. Hair appearing caught in the wind on a windless day. Move like leaves falling off trees in autumn. Rock mismatched socks. Sway to music inside your head. Hoard of mugs with cold tea. Fall asleep in an unmade bed. Dream about what life is meant to be.
