...how weak in the knees and heart-eyed I get every time you take your sunglasses off and our gazes meet over ice cream.

Saw your post. Show me a work sign some time.

To the guy who came to the show in full costume: You made the evening exponentially better. Thank you for that! It was such a great time.
—An Avid Dan Fan

To the girl with the yellow bikini top and short shorts walking down Portland Street today giving zero fucks: I love you! You rock! Admiring your body confidence!

To the human in the crowd
At the Grind,
On Garrison Ground
With the pixie hair 'do
Short in the back, maybe dark red or brown?

I can't remember your name
I didn't properly hear you
We only briefly spoke
Just introduced ourselves
As "one of THEM" too

Though you barely made a sound
Your energy vibrated so very loud
And your face felt so soft
When I touched it so gently
As we kissed for a few minutes like no one else was around

If you live in the city
(And I hope that you do)
I wish that if you see this
You'd recognize my pineapple tattoo
And if so, please reach out to me too

I’ve been thinking about you, and every time I do, your eyebrows pop into my mind first. Their expression-filled inquisitiveness makes me laugh and want you more . I love how my world stops when you’re around and the way you make me feel alive. I want more.—Never stop being your goofy self

I've been called a lot of things and have had a lot of hate spewed at me. There have also been a LOT of lies and twisted stories. You've bought into them all, and hate when you don't even know the truth—and won't even take a moment to find out. I'm sorry you're coming from such a dark, negative place. I'm sorry you're hurt and I'm sorry that, at this point, you can't be open to the truth. One day that might change. For now, I want you to know I'm holding space. I care about you and your welfare and I am here if seeds of doubt ever creep in. You may not think you are loved or important but you REALLY are.—Hated but understanding and still keeping the faith

To the guy who was shirtless with camo shorts: You truly are a heartthrob! Sorry if I made it awkward as I shyly smiled and our eyes met as I was going by, and if from a distance I was checking you out. Your good mood and all things hunky made me smile bashfully. Make sure you use sunblock—studs shouldn't get burned.

I don't just mean your band, but you DO have excellent stage presence and songwriting skills. You're very funny and sweet and awkward and I think it's very cute. You were a good cuddler. Cute dates and snugs would have been plenty. I never wanted anything serious, but I think I scared you. I am not scary. I think you know that too. That's why it happened twice.
Now you barely have anything to say to me. STILL! It's been a little while now, but I'm still sad because you used to invite me to things all the time and I miss that! I miss being your friend, or at least seeing you regularly—and all the people I knew through you.
Thanks for walking me home so many times, I guess. Jam again sometime?

I can’t say I’ve ever seen someone have that much fun throwing crushed cans onto a roof. You weren’t very good at it but you sure gave it a solid try.
I caught you while walking through and thought you were cute. Keep doing you.
