There's something really refreshing about this poem being all caps and earnest and refusing to be cool about love.

DEAR BINNIE, WRAPPED IN SHADES OF PURPLE BRIGHT,

YOU TURN THE ORDINARY INTO PURE DELIGHT.

WITH LILIES & LAVENDER BLOOMING SO SWEET,

EVERY MEMORY WITH YOU FEELS WARM AND COMPLETE.

LIKE FLUFFY BUNNIES HOPPING WITH GLEE,

YOU'RE THE VERY BEST KIND OF FRIEND TO ME.

A TINY TRUTH THAT'S FOREVER TRUE:

U+ME<3, JUST ME AND YOU.

A BIT OF ANY LANEIGE AND WITH YOUR SMILE ON DISPLAY

YOU’LL BRIGHTEN THE CLOUDS AND CHASE THEM AWAY.

I HOPE ONE DAY,

THAT WE CAN CRUISE IN AN SUV,

WHICH WILL MAKE MY DAY OKAY

WITH A HYBRID ENGINE, SMOOTH, STEADY, AND BRIGHT,

WE KEEP ON ROLLING FROM MORNING TO NIGHT.

WHEN SHAWN MENDES STARTS TO SING,

YOUR SMILE MAKES EVERY HEARTBEAT RING.

YOU'RE LIKE CAMILA CABELLO:CONFIDENT, KIND, AND SWEET,

WITH A SPARKLE THAT NO ONE ELSE CAN BEAT.

WE'LL SHARE LAMB BIRYANI, YOUR FAVORITE TREAT,

MAKING EVERY MEAL FEEL EXTRA COMPLETE.

NEED AN OUTFIT? JUST CALL MY NAME—

I'LL GIVE STYLING ADVICE EVERY SINGLE DAY THE SAME.

FROM CARDIGANS TO TANK TOPS, AND THOSE ELEPHANT PANTS,

I'LL HELP YOU STYLE FOR SHIRTS, WHENEVER GIVEN A CHANCE. ✨

SO HERE'S MY PROMISE, THAT NO MATTER WHAT

I'LL ALWAYS BE CHEERING FOR YOU.

WITH PURPLE, BUNNIES, AND LANIEGE

FOREVER AND ALWAYS—I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU.

EVEN IF WE’RE HALF A WORLD AWAY

    Is Tinnie someone you both knew before, or does that name hold another story?

    How long have you and Binnie known each other? This reads like a friendship that goes really deep.

    You're out here writing car commercials mixed with love letters and somehow it works perfectly

    This is the kind of friendship energy we all need. The specificity of purple and bunnies and lamb biryani is everything.

    He wore velvet, blue like the Pacific Ocean. Dark blue like the Mediterranean Sea. I watched him from afar. My heart burned for him, but when he left, the ocean entered a deep storm. He wore velvet, blue like the Pacific Ocean. I could still tell: there are tears streaming down his face. Blue velvet, like the Pacific Ocean, and an overwhelming emotional instability. I could still tell: there are tears streaming down that velvet. Blue velvet. Judson Kaique 27-07-2026

  • The Weight of "Just"

    I know how easily the word "just" can erase a wound for everyone except the one carrying it. So I learned to move through the world as gently as I wished someone had moved through mine.

  • The quite noise inside me

    I don't know where I go when I leave the moment I'm living. My body keeps moving forward, but my mind disappears somewhere else. I carry other people's pain, overthink every little thing, and forget to care for myself. Maybe I'm not tired of life. Maybe I'm just tired of carrying everything I feel.
