Fooling Everyone

There were dark times ahead for Randy. Darker days, darker hours and much darker moments. Times, days, hours and moments of harsh sobriety and harsher emotions. Emotions he hadn't felt for years. Emotions he'd buried under years of drug abuse.

He found he didn't know himself anymore. As if he'd been reborn into a brand new world, with a brand new body and a brand new mind. It terrified him.

Nothing seemed familiar. Nowhere and no one felt safe. He didn't feel at home anywhere. He was in a foreign land, with strangers. 

He was in a walking nightmare. One he supposed he deserved, because he'd been selfish, reckless and self destructive.

Yet he walked around with a smile on his face and a laugh that disguised deep buried guilt, shame and pain.

He was fooling everyone, except himself.

Girl Who Deserves A Chance

 Ryan, You asked me once, "Why do people love me?" I'll tell you why... Your energy is what makes people fall in love with you. It's how you make them feel. It is not your body, your money or your looks that make you magnetic. What makes you unforgettable is how you transform the hearts of people around you with your simple presence. That is your energy, that is your power, and that is why people love you. Jessica,     the girl who deserves a chance...

Backstage Stooge

 Dear Ryan,  You're delightful and a real treat to be around, a regular jack who's so down to earth. What you see is what you get with you. No pretenses, no false fronts, no ulterior motives or ill intentions. You're one to say what you're thinking with your eyes, you can never hide behind lies, and your sighs give you away. Although you're an exceptional actor, you shed those roles only to recreate yourself whenever you feel you need to. I suspect you've got some secrets and perhaps you very well could be a demon in disguise. But I seriously doubt the dark side of you isn't just as beautiful as the light side. You're no one's fool and you're fooling no one. You've simply got to walk in any room and your energy speaks for itself. You're one of a kind, and don't tell anyone, but I think my heart might become rather fond of you. Your co-star and backstage stooge, Jonah D.
