Hello, dearly beloved
How are you doing?
I hope you’re doing fine
It’s been so long
Since we’ve last talked
It’s been so long
Since we’ve last seen each other
I strongly apologise
For keeping you wait for my emails
For I have been busy
And I hope you understand that
Though I know being busy
Is not that much of an excuse
I hope you’re not mad darling
I know you’ve been missing me
For quite some time
I apologies for hurting you
I know how much missing someone hurts
I know
Because I have been missing you too
Which hurts like
An incurable wound
Will you forgive my clumsiness?
I hope you do
Please do
My dear
I love you very
Do you love me still?
I hope you do
Well I know you do
But please say you do
Will you please
Reply to this unravishing poem from me to you
With a ravishing poem from you to me?
I hope you do
Please do

I'm not always the best with keeping my promises.
I'd go as far to say that I'm pretty dumb,
at least when it comes down to handling my feelings.
But I've always been able to put a pen to a page and write them out.
So I guess I'm here to do that again.

I wish I could tell you I'm not scared.
I wish I could tell you I'm not jealous.
I wish that I could hold you every night.
I know that it means nothing.
I'm scared that it could turn into something when I'm away.
I know you Love me.
I Know I Love you.
I just get scared because I'm afra-404
I just get scared because it's happened before,
I look into the mirror and can't understand why I'm like this.

Today I said the words you gave me about 100 times today.
They still haven't worked.
But I'll keep saying them,
because maybe then you'll believe me when I say:
I think you're beautiful.
You look stunning.
I love the sound of your laugh.
I think you're an amazing singer.

— The End —
