dear charlotte,

A Poem by valerie
"

there are so many hidden meanings in this that even i cant name all of them. inspired by some rough times.

"

charlotte,
have you ever cried because
you knew there was absolutely
no way in heaven or hell
that someone would love
you?

charlotte,
i used to believe we cried
to prove we are not alone
in this world but now i
see that we cry to see
just how lonely we really are.

charlotte,
i am so alone.

charlotte,
i'm usually not pessimistic
but lately i've been nothing but
and i can't find a reason for
anything, anymore.

charlotte,
everything's become
nothing
to me.

charlotte,
i wish i could run away from
my life and start off somewhere
new as someone else who is
charming and kind and
ultimately, lovable.

charlotte,
did you know i talk to my
chocolate laborador whenever
i'm sad because there's this look
in her eyes that seems to both
understand and sympathize
with me in a way that no
human ever has? i guess it
must be lonely being the
only canine on this street.

charlotte,
today i realized i will never
be the best at anything. i
will never be self-sufficient.
i will never be understood.
i will never be loved. not
even by you.

charlotte,
i know you know how much
those things mean to me.

charlotte,
if you see someone who
looks like me walking down
the street, with darker hair
and brighter eyes and a
perfect smile, don't be
afraid to say "hello,
charlotte" and keep going
on your way.

This is a sad piece, but i like it. How the writer seems to be writing letters to herself? is clever, not what i expected when i first started to read... i particularly like the last 'letter'...not really sure why i do. But it caught my attention =)

This is kinda sad, but I like it. You might want to capitalize though. Good job, keep it up!
