Dearest Tommy I think of you every night I lay awake listening to the thunder and the lightening, and the rain on the old tin roof (which is leaking again by the way) but during the day I can't hear it, I'm so busy staying sane Just want you to know, even though it's only been 2 months I'm thinking of you, again
My Heart, Melissa I'm thinking of you out in the desert there are 50 million stars and several stray bullet tracers but they can never mar the beauty of the night sky, from where I lie thinking of you and maybe... our babe? Don't leave my hanging sweetheart, give me a hint to make my darkest day
I LOVE U!
Dear Tommy The mailman came again today with no news from you, I can't pretend that it didn't light a fuse beneath my temper but I understand you are busy and it is September Autumn months where life lies fallow I'm not trying to be shallow I'm just trying to plug up the leaks there is no babe, I'm sorry (I'm not) but it's cold and life is bleak without you
Darling Melissa I'm hearing you cry out to me I'm getting your letters but you're not seeing me? How can that be? I want you to know that each grain of sand that I pour out of my boots at night I count as minutes spent away from you and I'm seeing you beyond sight when I close my eyes under stars that don't shine for you in your universe and I'm sorry for that but under each shining light, I pretend that your looking up at the same star and you are whispering what we rehearsed... No matter where you are, you are my star. Remember?
Love your Tommy
Dear Tom The leak was fixed last week by Steven Treadle remember him from High School He played football for a little while and then he decided college football wasn't for him so he decided on a trade and now he's a roofer He wanted to be a soldier but his injury prevented him He's doing well, here in Suburbia...
and with me... I'm so sorry, sorry, sorry, so sorry but he's here for me... I'm so sorry but Tommy
I Loved you and the idea of you and me but Tommy I need someone by me...
Sorry
the last response Melissa received was not a letter from Tommy but an Official Sorry* from the Military but it was never as sorry as Melissa felt that Tommy may have (or may have not) received her last Sorry or the Hell it may have spelt
