A Second Unsent Letter
I've missed you quite dearly since we last parted ways
For if left undistracted, I'd have counted the days
Why exactly I miss you is so hard to pin down
It's not any one absence that brings me to frown
It seems that all of you is that for which I long
With your laugh and your voice like the sweetest of songs
A woman whose spirit can be hardly contained
From sharing her joy, she has never refrained
Of me I know not the impression you hold
and I fear that it's not one of favour, but cold
I search through my memories for any signal you sent
And my heart at these moments is so grievously rent
You fill my brain with these bittersweet thoughts
And I wonder if what I want to do, I ought
I wasted away my chance with words on a page
All in hopes of releasing my heart from its cage
A hopeless romantic with nothing but time
With the desire that my plight can be solved through dumb rhymes
