Dear Seb, My infatuation with you did not impress. Dear Josh, We were 5000 feet above sea level, with a fear of heights. Desperation fuelled the climb. Dear Dave, You were my first love. You chew me up and refuse to spit me out. Dear Dan, I am sorry. Dear Alex, You should be sorry. Black and purple did not suit my skin. Dear Shea, We tried too hard. We lived in too many shadows. Dear Dave, I cannot get you out of my bones. You squat beneath my ribcage. Dear Craig, You gave me disillusion with meaningful words. I tried to love you. Dear Joe, You are breathtaking and the everything of everything. And I do not know how to be enough. Dear Keith, Why did we do it? Dear Theo, I would have broken that softness in your eyes. Dear Dave, Your indelible imprint colours everything I do. Dear Cameron, You are my what's next. Dear Joe, You stroked my hand and my hair to wake me. You are afraid of me. Dear Dave, I still remember every word. Every one. Dear Lucas, In my head we had infinity. Dear Matthew, I was a vacuum in your life. Together we were less than nothing. Dear Joe, You are the birds singing at dawn. Why do you want me? Dear Dave, I still remember.
