    1809 : Edgar Allan Poe is born

    On this day in 1809, poet, author and literary critic Edgar Allan Poe is born in Boston, Massachusetts.

    By the time he was three years old, both of Poe's parents had died, leaving him in the care of his godfather, John Allan, a wealthy tobacco merchant. After attending school in England, Poe entered the University of Virginia (UVA) in 1826. After fighting with Allan over his heavy gambling debts, he was forced to leave UVA after only eight months. Poe then served two years in the U.S. Army and won an appointment to West Point. After another falling-out, Allan cut him off completely and he got himself dismissed from the academy for rules infractions.

    Dark, handsome and brooding, Poe had published three works of poetry by that time, none of which had received much attention. In 1836, while working as an editor at the Southern Literary Messenger in Richmond, Virginia, Poe married his 13-year-old cousin, Virginia Clemm. He also completed his first full-length work of fiction, Arthur Gordon Pym, published in 1838. Poe lost his job at the Messenger due to his heavy drinking, and the couple moved to Philadelphia, where Poe worked as an editor at Burton's Gentleman's Magazine and Graham's Magazine. He became known for his direct and incisive criticism, as well as for dark horror stories like "The Fall of the House of Usher" and "The Tell-Tale Heart." Also around this time, Poe began writing mystery stories, including "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" and "The Purloined Letter"--works that would earn him a reputation as the father of the modern detective story.

    In 1844, the Poes moved to New York City. He scored a spectacular success the following year with his poem "The Raven." While Poe was working to launch The Broadway Journal--which soon failed--his wife Virginia fell ill and died of tuberculosis in early 1847. His wife's death drove Poe even deeper into alcoholism and drug abuse. After becoming involved with several women, Poe returned to Richmond in 1849 and got engaged to an old flame. Before the wedding, however, Poe died suddenly. Though circumstances are somewhat unclear, it appeared he began drinking at a party in Baltimore and disappeared, only to be found incoherent in a gutter three days later. Taken to the hospital, he died on October 7, 1849, at age 40.

    I'm coming to terms with the fact that,.... we probably never should have been together in the first place.
    Peace, Love.

    not saying that I lost by loving, but .... there were signs right from the start that maybe I should have paid attention too.

    I don't regret spending one second with her, let alone the 4.5 years. but that don't change the fact that we may have been doomed from the start.
    Peace, Love.

    there was the real miraclous immediate connection between us...
    and the many connections made ever since...
    so hopefully your heart understands and feels...
    that i still genuinely care.

    Cheers darlin'
    Here's to you and your lover boy
    Cheers darlin'
    I got years to wait around for you
    Cheers darlin'
    I've got your wedding bells in my ear
    Cheers darlin'
    You gave me three cigarettes to smoke my tears away

    And I die when you mention his name
    And I lied, I should have kissed you
    When we were runnin' in the rain

    What am I darlin'?
    A whisper in your ear?
    A piece of your cake?
    What am I, darlin?
    The boy you can fear?
    Or your biggest mistake?

    Cheers darlin'

    I got a ribbon of green on my guitar
    Cheers darlin'
    I got a beauty queen
    To sit not very far from me

    I die when he comes around
    To take you home
    I'm too shy
    I should have kissed you when we were alone

    What am I darlin'?
    A whisper in your ear?
    A piece of your cake?
    What am I, darlin?
    The boy you can fear?
    Or your biggest mistake?

    Oh what am I? What am I darlin'?
    I got years to wait...

    Just knowing you want to be here makes up for the fact that you can't be. As for now I'll listen to the crowes and think of you.

    I've been in relationships that have lasted 9 months, where I wanted them to last forever. And I've been in relationships that have lasted 4 years, where I wanted them to last for only 7 months. And not the first 7 months, but only the first 4 months, and another 2 months in the 3rd year when we had lots of great crazy sex because she was mad at her Dad, and another month made up of my birthdays and lazy Sundays.
