passed on the kleenex,
saw you kneeling with tears.
too young, too eager.
so i took your arm and put you on my pedestal.
treated you like a brother, you reciprocated.
all those fabulous moments we shared, too hilarious.
apologies, breakdowns are inevitable.
one must go through them to become stronger.
forgiven, one summer went by, without hiccups.
when autumn leaves fell on our heads, you welcomed me to your home.
it was getting colder, your friends thoroughly enjoyed my company.
finally, a new year began. no news?
that's alright, it's just a phase.
skipped dinners? maybe it's too much.
you are still you in your old way, albeit with new tricks.
stood by you all these years, i just want to see you grow up a little.
perhaps you did, perhaps you didn't.
but whatever you do, please don't get stuck.
in the mud, in the hairdryer - we must always progress, move up, on this trajectory of humanity.
it's not about a lost friendship, it's about love.
it's about wanting you to be a better person.
to grow. to succeed. to not get stuck.
that is my love, my message, to you.
i hope that, with time, enclosed in this letter to the universe,
will reach you, in the deepest crack of your heart.
i know it exists. light will shine upon you.
and you shall blossom, into a real man, with real purpose.
for now, keep experimenting. i did too.
and i do still, just in slightly different ways, my dear.
