A personal message on this cassette for ysa
my dearest, ysa i’ve always admired you, perhaps more deeply than i knew how to admit. when i rejected you, it was never because i felt nothing, but because i was afraid that wanting you meant risking the very person i could never bear to lose. you were an answer to a prayer i wasn’t ready to receive, so i mistook friendship for a safe harbor, hiding from the storm within me. i know i confuse you, but please know that i like you, in the spaces between words, in every silence that held what i was too afraid to say. and, perhaps, one day, i’ll cook for you, care for you when you’re drowning in everything, and stand beside you loudly, boldly, proudly. until then, i’ll keep dedicating songs in place of the words i can never seem to say, hoping that somehow, you’ll hear what i’ve always been too afraid to tell you. and in chances where you don’t believe in yourself, please borrow my belief in you. you’re all i ever wanted, i hope life lets me keep you :’) -m
