I could write a dozen articles about which halfback to start in fantasy football. I’ve written seven novellas (four inspired by Queen Nazz) in just a couple of months. Meeting you was the best thing to happen to me this year.
But when you told me to write a poem for New Year's, it was my toughest assignment yet.
You know I don't think in poems; I think in stories.
Should I write about the time when we first met and you playfully tossed a cherry stem from your cocktail at me to chide me for being late? I thought you were being feisty and funny. Thank god it didn't impact my future with you.
Should I write about the delicious food you cook for me? Or about how you sometimes just leave food on the table downstairs if I'm busy at work writing?
The times you picked me up from the airport? I've already written stories about our travels, our journey, our feeling closer to each other.
Maybe I should write about the time we... ... No, that's too crazy for the people to read.
Each story is an episode. One chapter of our story.
But why can't I write Our Story, our whole story?
Maybe it's because I love you too much. I want our story to be perfect.
Maybe it's because our story is so beautiful I want to keep it to ourselves.
Or maybe it's because a good story needs a beginning, a middle, and an end. The New Year never meant much to me. I plan to be still be alive tomorrow--even if I might be a little late getting out of bed in the morning. New Year's resolutions? I resolve to be better each and every day.
The end of the Gregorian year. A strange concept. It’s not the end of the Thai year, not the end of the lunar year, not the end of my novel. What’s it the end of?
I guess that’s why I struggled to write this one. I don't have the ending written. And, I don't want it to end.
Read the true story of the beginning of Nazz and Ari’s relationship: Real Life Femdom: Learning to Love My Leash: Farang Collared and Controlled by a Thai Mistress (Mistress Nazz and Ari)
“Why did you want to come and stay here?” Nazz said. “Didn’t you feel you wanted to take an adventure? To try something on a whim? Because you didn’t want to put on a suit and go back to the real world so soon?"
Mistress Nazz was right. I needed an escape from this boring world. But could I really put a dog collar and leash on and be led all through the market? Could I really take the caning and punishments that awaited me if I was a bad dog?
