I saved every letter you wrote me
From the moment I read them
I knew you were mine
You said you were mine
I thought you were mine

~~

Eliza shuffled through every letter Alexander has ever given him looking for something anything that confirmed their love

~~

Do you know what Angelica said
When we saw your first letter arrive?
She said,

"Be careful with that one, love
He will do what it takes to survive."

~~

She spread them all spilling ink in the process it smeared some letters and got all over her hands she wiped the tears clutching the Hamilton Reynolds pamphlet in one hand

~~

You and your words flooded my senses
Your sentences left me defenseless
You built me palaces out of paragraphs

You built cathedrals

~~

He was hers....he promised he loved her he loved her didn't he? was he there just for status he couldn't be..he loved her

~~

I'm re-reading the letters you wrote me
I'm searching and scanning for answers
In every line
For some kind of sign
And when you were mine
The world seemed to

Burn
Burn

~~

Ink stained her face and she stands straight she wouldn't take this...she was Elizabeth Schuyler and she wouldn't take this from a self destructive man..

She was no fool.
