wrap your arms around your own body
and from the back it looks like
someone is embracing you
her hands grasping your shirt
her fingernails teasing your neck
from the front it is another story
you never looked so alone
your crossed elbows and screwy grin
you could be waiting for a tailor
to fit you with a straight jacket
one that would hold you really tight.

so i have been wanting to write to you for like the passed month. i just have not been able to find the best way to do that. so, i am just going to here then. hopefully you see it. for some reason i have been thinking about you a lot lately. i think a lot of it has to do with every time i think of the happy day of my wedding, i love that you were a part of that and made it even more special with the beautiful moments you were able to capture. this is sounding like a love note to you. but that is totally weird and not what i'm getting at. i know i dont know you very well. but i just have been wanting to say you hold a special place in my heart and i just think you are so sweet and such a beautiful soul. the picture of you and your boyfriend on your facebook makes me so unbelievably happy, for some reason. you deserve to be adored, and i hope that he does that. i just want to say that you are someone that makes me want to be a better person and i really look up to you and your sweet character. i hope everything is going well. Jordan and I get to visit seattle in a few weeks! his aunt and uncle are flying us out to watch his kids for a little over a week. so you'll have to tell us places to go and sites to see. anyways, thanks for being an amazing lady, jenny b. you really touch more lives than you know.
