Married to Your Music

I used to get so mad at you whenever you said you were married to your music. I mean, you could've at least said you were dating someone. Given the reporter a secret smile. Anything. I always felt like you saying you were married to your music was denying us somehow.

If they ever even asked me if I was dating anyone, I would say yes and then I wouldn't say anything more. And of course they're going to ask you, you're JC. You're probably more loved by everyone than Justin. I know you are by me.

So why do you say you're married to your music? That's what I always asked myself.

Then one day I found a note taped to the door of my anonymous hotel room. I can still remember what it read; I memorized it in my heart.

I just wanted to thank you. Thank you for waking up every day with a smile on your face and automatically bringing one to mine. Thank you for holding my hand when I need it, and sometimes even when I don't. Thank you for loving me in every kind of way, all of which are ways I need to be loved. Thank you for inspiring me to do what I do, and be who I am. Thank you for just being you, because you are where I get all my best ideas from. Thank you for being my music.

The next time you told someone you were married to your music, I simply smiled.
