The Residence Assistant on my dorm’s eleventh floor
Is just the sort of person whom to know is to want more.
A few days with his floor mates and he’s turned them into friends.
The warm and ringing laughter at his table never ends.

Too busy for a movie night, too busy for a walk,
Too busy for a book but not, thank god, to eat and talk.
So busy with your duties, you have all of our respect,
But please take care of you first, and the world around you next.

The lamplight on your hair is all it takes to bring a smile.
Beside those bright green sneakers, one might walk a thousand miles.
Please don’t forget when fog rolls in and stress keeps rising higher
That on this campus, you have at least one
Secret Admirer.
—Dal student

Thanks for inviting me to join you and your bandmate the other night. I guess the only thing hotter than watching you play rock and roll music is rocking out and being sexy with you gals in the sack. Next time can I get tied up with licorice rope? —I thought my band had the title for sexy

You used to come into Propeller fairly often to get your growlie filled with double IPA. You're a welder and a dreamboat. Your absence has been noticed. —Hoppy to have met you!

You seriously brighten up my day when I see you at work. You make me laugh, and your smile is a ray of sunshine that warms my heart. I hope that soon I can muster up the courage to tell you how you make me feel. I would love to spend the day with you adventuring around the city. I only hope you feel the same way too. —just another office drone

On the couch, in the passenger seat, on the front step, in the middle of the bed. I love you forever right beside me. —Guy

To the woman singing in her car on Mumford Road during the ride home on Tuesday; belt it out, girl! You were rocking out, hard, and it put a smile on my face. Roll down your window, I want to sing with you. —I smiled to see it

Being a poor college student isn't that glamorous when you're scanning your cupboards for a snack, but shit sometimes I miss it. —Dartmouth in my heart forever

I am filled with hate and dread, the mere thought of you shakes me to my soul and to look up and see you standing there, sends me scurrying for cover knowing there is none to find. You seemed to have come from the darkest and most foul region of hell. You make the sun go dark and the night go cold, all that know you are repulsed by you. I find it has been a long and miserable 7 years since we met and I fear that even death would not be a comfort as I’m sure your misery would follow me in to the ether.

I fear to hope that someday we will part and I’m yet free of the touch of your soured soul and that horrifying darkness you bring with you everywhere you go. I long for the days when the sun warmed my face and the sound of laughter was part of my live, but I know that the sun no longer shines and laughter has fell silent.

I don’t blame you, I blame myself for not seeing what you truly are the abyss, and you do what evil does and I did not see it until it was too late. Hope has left me and all that is left is fear and loathing, I fear what is yet to come and I loathe myself for not being able to stand up to you, which makes me weak and powerless as well. Your control over me is complete I have no will left to fight with. I throw myself at whatever mercy you may have, take what little I have left, take from me all the hope and joy you can, I will take all the pain and misfortune you can levy on me, I will grovel at your feet and beg for mercy, knowing it will never come… it is complete I am broken.

Our dinner reservations are at eight, the kids will be at your parents and Happy Birthday!!!! —Slave

Thank you to the lovely people who escorted me home from Reflections late Saturday night, having just been acquainted with me. I love the Halifax queer community for looking out for each other and making sure everyone is safe. —Bowie crop top wearer
