canada "Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance." -Carl Sandburg
My hands shaking, My breath heavy, I seal the envelope shut. My mind swimming with thoughts, Sweat trickles down my neck. My mind pondering, "Do I send the letter?" My heart beats like crazy, Seeming like a million beats per second. The main question of the day, "Do I send the letter?" Looking at the stark white envelope, My mind explodes. I'm anxious, I can tell. Fidgeting with my fingers, I think of you and, I now want to send it. My mind clears, The main question, "Do I send the letter," Seems to be vanishing from my mind. Cause all I can think is, I want you to know that, My life is horrible without you in it.

Do I send the letter
I once had a hope That would never become A true wish of mine... I once hoped That I had the strength To get back up When I'm being pushed when I am already down On the ground But I knew That my hope would never become A true wish of mine I once hoped That I had the mental strength For when I am sitting On a peachy colored Chair I wouldn't break The waterworks in my eyes For people to label me As weak But I knew That my hope would never become A true wish of mine I once hoped That my dear brother Would come back From that dark and Wretched place That humans call Prison So that the pang In my chest Would leave me But I knew That my hope would never become a true wish of mine
