Thomas Joel ★☆☆☆☆ The Mayveiw Hotel was one of my first public stays alone. It was unsanitary and grimy, but I managed to cope with long saunters outside.

You had beautiful eyes, and pretty hair, a wonderful smile, a contagious laugh, and an aura that gave life. I remember staring at you for countless hours, looking into your eyes. Your eyes were unique too, the most beautiful sight I hadmever seen. But when I saw those eyes later that day I didn’t know who you were anymore. Your eyes didn’t sparkle, and shine. There w...
