Letters

This is about a suffering friendship and being forgotten by someone you love.

Letters

 

The letter, the letter I addressed to you

It lies unopened; unread within the stack of other letters,

letters from only the people that are worth to you

in which my soul does not belong

on the paper under your eyes 

 

But we, but our friendship-

or what friendship?!-

it suffered for a year and more

did you ever, ever care?

did you even once consider of my life?  

my death?

 

The letter, the letter you wrote me;

the only letter you wrote of me

lies beside my cold feet

I drop the match; the flame to extinguish my cold

and melt away my infection

ignite! ignite!

burn! burn!

ashes! oh, to ashes!

 

Ashes of when I thought that you even cared

you only cared for a brief moment;

the moment in which you so gingerly clutched

my letter for you in your hands, in your hands

you opened the envelope so tenderly,

you were so, oh so careful not to cut your fingers

on the edges of the white paper

 

But you did cut those fingers of your's

your blood dripped onto the letter,

seeping through the ink of my claims

 

You then stemmed your bleeding,

and you glanced over my words

however, you could not distinguish much,

you could not distinguish much at all

for your blood; your pain; your fear

had drownded out my 'forever' inked words

 

Wrote me back, you returned the 'favor'!

once the message was sent,

you burned my letter;

my words; my writing; my confession;

your blood; your fear

you inflamed it all

the words, they melted in their ink

the passion, the passion remains of nothing but ashes;

ashes of my plea that you so carelessly returned.

Why are some people so heartless! :( I think it's all the tv and movies people watch. corrupting their ability to feel! :) Another wonderful run of words, that take me from writen work into world of images full of emotion! Great Job letting your passions flow!
