Today is beautiful and I am dreaming of you and enigma and how we are together today: your words in my ears making me limp and taut by turns with delight. Oh, I am sure we could use each other today.

Pardon the intrusion: but when in September will you be back? I would like to measure my breath in relation to the air between us.
