This Is My Wish For You, My Friend
by Wei Dai
On the final day of 2019, I recorded this heartfelt message, inspired by a poignant online poem written for a son. I added a few lines of my own and paired the narration with the soothing melodies of Hymn to Hope. Listening to it again today feels like meeting my younger self. This time, I have given it a new musical home. The narration becomes the opening chapter. An R&B interpretation brings warmth and life to the message. And at the end, the music returns — softer this time, leaving a little more space for the wishes to linger. May you hear the quiet tenderness that time leaves behind. And if these words happen to find you on a day when you need them most, I hope you will keep them close for a while. Perhaps, one day, you will pass them gently on to someone you cherish. In time, these words became my wish for you, my dear friend. May the wings of the butterfly kiss the sun and find your shoulder to light on. Today. Tomorrow. And beyond. *Music co-created with AI.
