rejection letter.


My pen is telling me to stop crying. Come on,

it says. I know you’re crushed. You’re not getting out of here. But even though we’ve been in the same place for 21 years, we still had fun times, right? You and me? We did. You don’t need your passport to travel. These books on your shelves, those journals in your closet, they say we’ve crossed seas. Hell, we’ve crossed stars.

It’s not over yet. Don’t think about putting me away. Here, I’ll make a deal with your fingers. If you hold me, I’ll dance. And they’ll sing. Anywhere you want. They can still sing.
