A letter to you.

A letter I was supposed to send to my best friend in the world.

I wrote you a letter today
I even put a stamp on it
But I ripped it into pieces
I couldn’t let you know the truth
Deep within my soul
That I so desperately want to tell you
But if I do
I think you might just go away
So I ripped it up
And through the truth
Out the window
The truth
As been scattered in time
I sit back and wonder
If it was a mistake not to tell you
But then again
I don’t want to lose you
I love you.

You displayed wonderfully how it is to love someone, but be too scared to tell them. You want to tell them you love them, but there's the possibility of losing them. The emotion you put into the poem feels personal, and that is the best kind of emotion, since it's real. You wrote this poem with your heart, and I think that's what makes it so great.

Wow.. suppressed and contained passion... these emotions are truly a crazy mix. As in reality so many have that one person that we got real close to as friends.. sense of fear of rejection.. fear of losing that great friendship overall if it does not work out. Sometimes it is better not to pursue.. but then some great relationships have come from best friendships... it can be such a tough call. Myself reflecting back.. I would say go for it.. as in this new world everything is change.. best friends will be harder to find as many move off to pursue their lives.. friendship of 25 years will be less frequently seen. A best friend can truly be a soulmate.. a frustrating one but knowing each other so good could have just too many benefits to ignore. Also having that one best friend that you don't want to lose.. partnership would mean keeping them in your life that much closer. Truly something though that each person must struggle with.. and just my opinions. Love your honesty and emotions here! =)

lol thanks for the reviews but yeah it is a little confusing, no a lot of people understand what I write mostly because I speak of experience and unless you've gone thru it, it is hard for the reader to understand.

You said you were supposed to send this to your best friend in the world and I can't help but think about how I've fallen for my best friend. Over the years we've just grown closer, but we've dated other people (some of which have been disastors). I finally decided to tell her how I feel, and I learned that she felt the same way, but she's afraid of losing me if anything happens to us. Anyway, I felt this poem really spoke from your heart. I think these are the best lines (probably because I can relate to them):
I sit back and wonder
If it was a mistake not to tell you
But then again
I don't want to lose you
I love you.

Great job! The only thing I think you should add is more punctuation to seperate some thoughts so it's less confusing.

I loved this. There is always so many words left unsaid. Sometimes they are better unsaid. Sometimes the questions are better unanswered. Loved it xxxx
