uncertainty

Dear One,

… I want to say what you need to hear — is that arrogant? I’m sorry, I mean to love:

I’m still learning

you deserve support, if you want it.

Will you tell me, if you do? Will you ask me to help you when you need it?

I imagine that you could keep me safe, but I’m not sure how. Or why — why should I want you to protect me?

why should I want you to care? to love? to comfort? to believe me? is it alright that I don’t know what’s best to say? Sometimes I feel embarrassed that I’ve written this way. That I’ve written these letters like this… who am I to say any of these things to you?

But I want to share something of myself with you. Yes, I’m unsure, but I want to share something of my heart.

….

Love,

Jae
