a mamaist story of U and

       
I loves U, U loves I. It's an old story. 
Long before I set eyes on U, I knew 
what U looked like, only I didn't know 
it would take a lifetime of stumbling 
through the dark to find U. Now that I
has, I won’t let U go. For I needs U; I
wants U; I lives by U. Because of U, I 
sees in the dark. Because of U, I feels 
the insides of things. Because of U, I 
is able to love everything I isn't so as 
to be what I is. Even if U doesn't  
understand what I is saying, it’s not
important. For the wonderful thing 
is, U always knows what I means—
I doesn't have to say one word.
