A Letter to You

A Letter to You

A Poem by Marlena
"

to someone special.

"

I've had to let a lot go in the past years.

Friends, family, I'm almost surprised you're still around. I'm amazed I haven't convinced myself that you've hurt me in some sort of way.

I'd like to know why you're still here, but then I know you'd ask me the same. I don't need to ask anyway, if I did you would say "you" and I'd say the same. Thank you...

For dealing with me and my antics.

I know I'm strange; I talk to myself and dance to nothing in particular. I'd play the same song over and over, just for the sake of having it stuck in my head. I'll stay up until one or one thirty in the morning doing yoga, playing games or writing, or just listening to music. I scrutinize myself and you always say I'm crazy not for the other things but because I can't see the beauty you say I have. You're the best friend I'll ever have, and I can say I need you because it's true. And I love you.

Because it's true too.

So sweet! I have thought the same things. Those are true friends, the ones who stick by you no matter what.

This is really lovely. Sincere and intimate, it sounds like you have a good friend in this person and I would venture that you're a good friend to them too! Such friendships are rare and should be treasured forever. Wonderful and uplifting!

It's very sweet. and it really makes you think about your postion in life.
I hope you and.. your special someone are somewhat closer now, than what you were, when you were writing this. :D

It's beautiful-- the emotion put into this is clearly portrayed.

May I suggest formating this to aid in reading this poem? I realize that it's written in letter- format, but perhaps you could format it into something such as this--

I've had to let a lot go in the past years.


Friends, family,
I'm almost surprised you're still around.
I'm amazed I haven't convinced myself that
you've hurt me in some sort of way.

I'd like to know why you're still here,
but then I know you'd ask me the same.
I don't need to ask anyway,
if I did you would say "you" and I'd say the same.

Thank you...
For dealing with me and my antics.


And so forth..
