The Letter I Never Sent

by H. Elizabeth   Jun 8, 2015


I wrote you a letter today
But I didn't send it.
I sealed it with a
Kiss from my
Cold dead lips.
I wrote and told you
I loved you but mostly that I was
Sorry. That I
Got what I deserved
That I
Was okay with losing you but I'm
Not.
But I won't tell you that.
I'll keep the feelings to myself and
I will go on without you just as
You decided to go on without me.
It's okay,
I promise.
Be happy,
Be loved.
And
"Thank you" I wrote
In the letter I never
Sent.
