His Image

"He was always so obsessed with what everyone else thought about him, how he was viewed by other people, his image was everything. He had this facade to keep up with, he'd twist his face and his words depending on who he was talking with and what he wanted from them. And, more often than not, once he'd turned his head and walked away, he'd have something not so nice to say about them. I listened closely to him, knowing that someday, if I decided to walk away, that he would speak about me that way, too. It was one red flag I should have payed special attention to. Later on, after I'd left him, sure enough, his words turned against me. That hurt the most, the pain of knowing his unkind mouth had wicked words he'd reserved just for me..."

"Well, is seems to me that what mattered most wasn't what happened, it was how he looked from the outside. Your pain was negotiable, but his image was not..."

"Exactly..."

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.
