You are right

You are right
I am arrogant, and stupid, and crazy
And I’m too… full of life, and naïve, and too trusting and happy.

I’m raw, and clever, and silly,

And meaningful and too hard to forget.

These are not things that I'm un-proud of or want to hide;
This is what I'm made off
And I deeply want to share that with you
Because, while you think it makes me the "worse",

It really brings out the best.
It inspires, even if merely
by making others think that they are

So much better than me

It makes me be limitless and
Careless about who thinks what of me.
I mean, if you already think I am "crazy",

How much worse can it be?
That right there is a best excuse for everything:
"She is crazy!"
"She screamed in a full room and discovered
That no one could hear her!"
"She is crazy!"
That's me.

I'm crazy, thus FREE
To be more than your inhibitions or mine

Could ever allow us to be.
I own the arrogance to believe in myself
I'm arrogant enough to understand

Who I was and who I can be
Even if I'm not – yet - and I may never be.
In my arrogance I'm crazy enough
TO BELIEVE: I can be.
I'm arrogant and crazy enough to believe

Even in a stupid, simple, so improbable thing as YOU and ME.

I believe that Einstein had parents

Who never thought their son
Would become what neither did he.
And I know in my heart that
That's what our child would be.
And he probably won't,
But he'd still make this world a better place to be
And if we truly are lucky, then see
This one small being would be
The one memory that once upon a time
Even was a you and a me.

We'll see ourselves in each step and each smile,
In each "Go to your mom!" that you say

Right before he says: "Daddy, play with me!"

Yeah, I understand why you thought I was crazy
Because I sent you thousands of letters
Letters that weren't, normally, meant to be sent
Letters I would have NORMALLY sent to myself or to nowhere
But I sent them to you
Yes, I chose to hit "SEND";
Mainly because you weren't just
The man that I cared for,
Or the man that I loved
You were also my BEST FRIEND.
My one and amazing best friend.
The one who once said "I am here"
The one who once said "I'll be there!"

In a world where nobody really knows anybody
Because, really, truly, nobody cares
I chose YOU
I chose YOU to be my best friend
I chose YOU to be the one I wanted to share with
I chose YOU to want to get to know
I chose YOU to fall in love with
Because you did share yourself with me
Because you once wanted to get to know.

Because we did have the "moon on a platter"
Because you did say what I think
And you do think what I say.
Because we're the difference in details
But details are deeply the same.

And so, yes, I chose YOU
because YOU, you chose ME ...

So... it's sad that we lost it all
because what you thought I wanted

Was the fairytale…
Actually all I wanted -
All I EVER wanted - was

What WE always... already had.

Dearly,
Your friend
