Like tonight,
I stay awake.
Wondering
About you.
If you are out there
Somewhere
Real.
More than my imagination.
More than my daydream.
More than your words
On a screen
In my hand
And in my heart.
I love the fantasy I have of you.
I love that you don’t actually see me.
There is something so beautiful about a world freed from reality.
I can be myself, without being my total self.
It is beautiful
Until
Some nights
Like tonight…
Dear F.B.
If I tell you, will you quit asking? My status is eager. You know what is even more weird?
Your obsession with me.
Your emails after the first breakup were…excessive and pushy. The only reason I’m here is because you are holding my friends and family captive.
Look, the reason I avoided you in the first place, was because you were so clingy and needy. You wanted to know everything about me: where I grew up, what music I like, etc. Then you want to follow me everywhere, and you even sent “friends” to track me.
You want me to tell you my whole life story and give you every possible way to contact me.
It’s just plain weird. You need help.
That said, I have to be here on FaceBook for a while, so I hope we can be friends.
Sincerely, Becky

If you see this and click “like” just because it’s a cute title, stop following my blog. I need some input from writers for a while. Amazing how blogging has all these aspiring “writers” who don’t actually comment.
Don’t get me wrong, I love all you people who click “follow” or “like”. You raise my confidence and inspire posts like this! Ok, I’ll stop now.
WRITERS: Please, tell me any personal thoughts on “point of view” in writing. I’m talking, first, second, or third person viewpoints. If you read, which perspective do you like reading from?
Speaking of perspective, There are three types of followers, “likers”, writers, and friends. Hmm, maybe I’ll do a post on that. It would get tons of “likes”. Actually, you have it. No copyrights on this paragraph. Enjoy being freshly pressed.
If you’re still reading this, you are the third type of follower, the loyal friend. I value your friendship immensely and hope you continue to follow me and be my friend. You don’t have to be anything or anyone other than yourself.
