palace of winds

From Kathy:

Write fifteen statements
Intended for different people.
Not all to friends.
Never tell which one is to whom.

1. Please stop calling like that. Seriously. Please.
2. You were the first person who ever told me I was beautiful. You probably didn’t mean it, but it’s almost four years later now and I still think of it.
3. I’ve given up. I wonder if you’ll ever notice.
4. I loved the way you looked at me while I laughed.
5. I so owe you.
6. I think I’d forgive you if you asked. But I still wish we’d never met; you’re the worst thing that ever happened to me.
7. I don’t know what I’d do without you.
8. Sometimes I picture having you over for afternoon tea. I want to serve you chai and coffee cake.
9. I wish you’d share it with me.
10. If I let myself think about it I’m so scared I can hardly breathe. I wish I could help you see that it could and should change.
11. I can see why she’s jealous.
12. The whole pouting act? Not remotely cute.
13. It hasn’t escaped my notice how unfailingly thoughtful you are. Thank you.
14. It drives me crazy, never knowing when you’re just being polite. So many well-intentioned lies are worse than potentially hurtful truths. There’s no trusting you.
15. I wish you’d invite me.
