Note from the Missed Connections Chief Bottle Finder:
Those Austin poets sure know how to spin a tale of regret and woe! Complementing this piece is a little ditty from Austin native and SXSW fave, Bob Schneider.

Holy hooded cloak I miss you so much.
And I’m reeling from the growing acceptance that I’ll never get to be close to you again.
You are beautiful, incredibly talented, and a truly fantastic creature.
If you ever came back I would marry you.
Please though, if you’re truly done then just move on with your life and let me know you’re doing so.
It’s so hard to see you uncomfortable with me, rare as that is.
I love you and no matter how good it was, even when it was really good, I have never fully been able to express how much I love you.
As for the worst times, you deserve better.
I can’t offer you anything more than my flawed self and ludicrous dreams, which I lay at your feet.
Tread softly.
