"My Dear Laurens" (the lost Hamilton track)

Some historians think Hamilton and John Laurens had a romantic relationship, based on the letters they wrote to each other. This wasn't talked about much on Broadway.
This hip-hop musical might have needed one thing: a love song.
This is that love song.
Song: Ryder Chasin
Chipotle: Al Cohen
(based on Hamilton's letter to Laurens c. April 1779, "Hope for a Wife")

And why draw attention to it? It made the moment weird instead of how it should be.

    I've been researching Hamilton for a project. And I personally believe that Hamilton really loved Laurens alot. I've read all the letters between them, and it's a bit too sweet and spicy for it to be just a friendship. Hamilton actually requested to be stationed near the south especially South Carolina in order for him to see Laurens. They even have nicknames for each other, John called Alex "Dear boy", the only times he calls somebody this way was with his wife, Martha Mannings. And John never told Hamilton that he had a wife. And what's very sad, is that after John was killed in action at the Battle of Combahee River, Hamilton literally went 2 days without talking to anybody else, not his wife, friends, and family. He shunned himself from people after John died, he had a harder time making new friends, he even refuses to talk about John after he died, because it caused him too much pain. There are even rumors that Eliza was jealous of John, because Alex never wrote the way he wrote to her as he wrote to John. There are even rumors that she helped in censoring those letters between John and Alex, but I don't know, I'm not saying this is real, I'm just saying from what other people say, and its only a theory, not a fact. But what is a fact is that Alex really loved John, but they knew that it couldn't work, because homosexuality was illegal at that time, and they had to break their affair, which is very sad.

    I wish this story made it into the play. It’s so clear to me in my research as well that he was madly in love with John. Not just from the language he uses about him but in the way he speaks about Eliza to him. He says at one point that she isn’t very beautiful or interesting, but that she listens and has decent eyes (lmao). It’s heartbreaking to think that if Hamilton’s story was told from his point of view that Lauren’s death would’ve been possibly the defining moment of his adult development. It seems like he was his first and greatest love it makes me so sad

    dhsh it's not in the same letter, he asked him to find him a wife after accidentally finding out john was married and had a kid (after 1.5 years of knowing him, laurens never planned to tell alex) so the letter was basically "OH SO YOU HAVE A WIFE? WHY DON'T YOU FIND *ME* ONE?" and it's hilarious

    Here’s the letter for comparison: Cold in my professions, warm in [my] friendships, I wish, my Dear Laurens, it m[ight] be in my power, by action rather than words, [to] convince you that I love you. I shall only tell you that 'till you bade us Adieu, I hardly knew the value you had taught my heart to set upon you. Indeed, my friend, it was not well done. You know the opinion I entertain of mankind, and how much it is my desire to preserve myself free from particular attachments, and to keep my happiness independent on the caprice of others. You sh[ould] not have taken advantage of my sensibility to ste[al] into my affections without my consent. But as you have done it and as we are generally indulgent to those we love, I shall not scruple to pardon the fraud you have committed, on condition that for my sake, if not for your own, you will always continue to merit the partiality, which you have so artfully instilled into [me].[2] And Now my Dear as we are upon the subject of wife, I empower and command you to get me one in Carolina. Such a wife as I want will, I know, be difficult to be found, but if you succeed, it will be the stronger proof of your zeal and dexterity. Take her description--She must be young, handsome (I lay most stress upon a good shape) sensible (a little learning will do), well bred, chaste and tender (I am an enthusiast in my notions of fidelity and fondness). But as to fortune, the larger stock of that the better.... Though I run no risk of going to Purgatory for my avarice, yet as money is an essential ingredient to happiness in this world--as I have not much of my own and as I am very little calculated to get more either by my address or industry; it must needs be, that my wife, if I get one, bring at least a sufficiency to administer to her own extravagances. N[ota] B[ene] [Note Well] You will be pleased to recollect in your negotiations that I have no invincible antipathy to the maidenly beauties & that I am willing to take the trouble of them upon myself. If you should not readily meet with a lady that you think answers my description you can only advertise in the public papers and doub[t]less you will hear of many ... who will be glad to become candidates for such a prize as I am. To excite their emulation, it will be necessary for you to give an account of the lover--his size, make, quality of mind and body, achievements, expectations, fortune, &c. In drawing my picture, you will no doubt be civil to your friend; mind you do justice to the length of my nose and don't forget, that I [- - - - - -]. After reviewing what I have written, I am ready to ask myself what could have put it into my head to hazard this Jeu de follie [maddness game]. Do I want a wife? No--I have plagues enough without desiring to add to the number that greatest of all; and if I were silly enough to do it, I should take care how I employ a proxy. Did I mean to show my wit? If I did, I am sure I have missed my aim. Did I only intend to [frisk]? In this I have succeeded, but I have done more. I have gratified my feelings, by lengthening out the only kind of intercourse now in my power with my friend. Adieu Yours. A Hamilton[4]

    my dear laurens, what do i have to do to try to explain that i love you? i didn't understand it before you said "adieu". i hardly knew your value to me in my heart until it was set on you. but i should give you your space. i don't mean to start, but when i picture your face, i know you've stolen my heart. and it's a little rude, i mean you should've asked me first, i would've let you. but instead i'm immersed to be the truest friend to you, that's true. would ever want to be so my plan is just to love you the way that you loved me. my dear laurens, i've gotten your letters from philly to chester and everything in between. if you'd seen what i've seen, you'd know you were doing it right. you'd know you were fighting the fight the way you should be. you were born for aid de camp, and whoever has a doubt doesn't know the dignity you have within so they can see themselves out. now, my dear laurens, a bit about my life. i was hoping, while you're in carolina, you could find me a wife. you know that my standards are high, but i have the feeling that you're just the guy who can understand, to win your man, you need to know how to satisfy! satisfy! she's gotta be young and cute with lots of loot and come from a good family tree. kind and gentle, sentimental, and knows how to listen to me. she's gotta be educated, five star rated, and beautiful as hell! not good, but great! a total 18th century bombshell. i'm sure they'll ask how i look. a sketch should do the trick. and you know how to draw my eyes, my hair, and the length of my nose. my dear laurens, i don't even want a wife. i'd happy to lead a simpler life. what was i even looking to do? made a fool of myself, just to impress you. i wish that i could journey by to where you are, but i guess this letter will do. it's the distance apart, laurens, my dear, 'cause you have my heart, and you're miles away from here. signed, alexander hamilton.
