dear matthew I like you a lot I realize
you're in a relationship with someone
right now and I respect that I would like
you to know that if you're ever single in
the future and you want to come visit me
in california I would be open to spending
time with you and finding out how old you
were when you wrote your first song
dear jonathan I liked you too much I used
to be attracted to boys who would lie to
me and think solely about themselves and
you were plenty self-destructive for my
taste at the time I used to say the more
tragic the better the truth is whenever I
think of the early '90's your face comes up
with a vengeance like it was yesterday
dear terrance I love you muchly you've
been nothing but open hearted and
emotionally available and supportive
and nurturing and consummately there
for me I kept drawing you in and pushing
you away I remember how beautiful it
was to fall asleep on your couch and cry in
front of you for the first time you were the
best platform from which to jump beyond
myself what was wrong with me
dear marcus you rocked my world you
had a charismatic way about you with the
women and you me seriously thinking
about spirituality and you wouldn't let me
get away with kicking my own ass but I
could never really feel relaxed and looked
out for around you though and that
stopped us from going any further than we
did and it's kinda too bad because we
could've had much more fun
dear lou we learned so much I realize we
won't be able to talk for some time and I
understand that as I do you the long
distance thing was the hardest and we did
as well as we could we were together
during a very tumultuous time in our lives
I will always have your back and be
curious about you about your career
your whereabouts
