My JooJooBee —

I have wanted to write you this letter for so long.

I feel like every letter I have written to you I have received for you.

Something wants me to say this, you to hear this.

How lucky we are.

How lucky I am.

You found me in my past — when I could have done anything but didn’t.

I found you in your future — where you have done everything you’ve dreamed.

We have brought each other back to ourselves now.

In this way we have become part of each other.

(Who saved who?)

Yet however you change, my feelings for you will not.

You cannot become someone else, only a better you.

(You can certainly act like someone else.)

Even a worse you I would adore.

I love your innocence.

How like a child you hurt when the world disappoints you.

Yet like a child you can remake the world however you like.

(Could I see the world only through you?)

I love your fearlessness.

How you face truth.

Your bravery will bring you wisdom and peace.

(You may have more courage than me.)

I love your softly seeking eyes.

I love your continually inquiring brows.

(I wish I had all your answers.)

I love your teeth tipping like a fence.

(Have you “fixed” them? Please, never do, I treasure them.)

I love your one in an infinity view of the world — you make me laugh.

I have made so many mistakes in my life, so many mistakes.

Letting you go will never, ever be one of them.

If I never make a film, I will have shared a life with you.

(Our truth beats all fiction.)

My JooJoo — my dream to kiss, my hope to hold — 

I love you so much I ache.

I love you so much.

I love you.

(If we don’t live for love then what do we live for?)

I want to stay by your side.

All I want is all you are.

— Your Fortune Cookie

P.S. You will just get an ordinary letter next time.

P.P.S. (No, you won’t.)
