Letters Let Her


Dear Anthony, I'd like to set aside order for a moment And what's inadvertently thought of as important To spill my heart on a palette With words left uncalloused Waiting to engrave Using a heavy hand to lead bleeding ink On a stationary page Because distance measures feet not heart And young hearts aren't always torn apart So I write this letter to express myself better Because there aren't enough days in the summer And there aren't enough days in the winter But there isn't enough time any time And the days are counting themselves down So I'll write letters filled with letters to form the words you deserve Because saying goodbye is always sad When the next day isn't reassured But I'll take with me what I've learned We're as young as the morning comes And we'll wait from stars to waking suns We know the lonely are the missed And feeling empty means you have so much more to give Because with silence comes sight and to fall is to fly I want you to remember my words from December "Because you place in me tunnels so deep Challenging me to travel to who I want to be" And even miles away I remember... How buildings became wallpaper setting the scene As words were stitiched between you and me I can take away from my time back home That I no longer feel alone Love, Tatiana
