"Wait For It" Aaron Burr's Journal

•5•

Dear Journal,

After a good night's rest, my emotions have calmed and sorted themselves.

I can't get around the fact that I love them both.

My lovely Peggy...
She deserves the world.
She deserves to be treated like a princess.
Because that's what she is.
She deserves better.
And I love her.
I don't deserve a goddess like her.
My poor standing compared to her is laughable.
She's the most beautiful thing to grace my existence.

My handsome Charles...
He deserves to be happy.
He deserves to be respected and loved.
Because he's amazing.
He deserves better.
And I love him.
I don't deserve a highly respected man like him.
My poor standing compared to him is laughable.
He's the most handsome thing to walk into my life.

I've been cursed yet graced by the affection of these two.

And I cannot decide.

I want them both to be happy.

Please.

Please, show me how to make them both happy.

Your Dearly Confused,

A. Burr.
