I had the dream again and I wake up sweaty and confused. Hard. I check his website over breakfast - an apple, the only thing I can keep down if there is no news - but the page is the same as it was yesterday. I stare at it, willing it to change but of course it doesn't.
"Sing, Justin. Sing," I whisper.
I take the pen and scented paper from the drawer and I write the letter again. The words are always the same, always.
Dear Mr Timberlake,
I am your biggest fan. I'm sure you hear this often but it's true. I love you so much. Your films are brilliant pieces of work, sparkling stars in my night sky, but I miss your voice. I miss your dancing.
Please, Justin. Sing. Sing for me.

On my way to the Post Office I pass so many people looking sad and empty, like finished bottles of fizzy drinks, and it's not surprising. When your beautiful, colourful world becomes a gray scale replica it's hard to rejoice.
I put the letter in the post box - I kiss the stamp as I always do - and go to work.

I had the dream again and I wake up sweaty and confused. Hard. I check his website over breakfast - an orange, the only thing I can keep down if there is no news - but the page is the same as it was yesterday and the day before. I stare at it, willing it to change but of course it doesn't. I sigh.
"Sing, Justin," I whisper.

I had the dream again and I wake up sweaty and confused. Hard. I check his website over breakfast - an apple, the only thing I can keep down if there is no news and there never is - but the page is the same as it was yesterday and the day before and, I think, the day before that. I stare at it, willing it to change but of course it doesn't. I sob.
"Justin," I whisper. "Can you hear me?"
I take the pencil and scented paper from the drawer and I write the letter again. The words are always the same, always.

I had the dream again and I wake up sweaty and confused. Hard. I check his website over breakfast - orange juice, the only thing I can keep down if there is no news and there never is - but there is, there is news, the page is different. I stare at it, incredulous.
"Justin," I whisper. "You heard me. Oh Justin."
I take the pencil and scented paper from the drawer and I throw them in the fire. The words were always the same, always.
Dear Mr Timberlake,
I am your biggest fan. I'm sure you hear this often but it's true. I love you so much. Your films are brilliant pieces of work, sparkling stars in my night sky, but I look forward to your voice and your dancing.
Thank you, Justin.
