Dear Stranger

Dear Stranger,

It has been so long, since we first met
Though long ago, you caught my heart in your net
You twisted yourself into my mind like a spell
From one glance you made these feelings I cannot expel

I recollect your hair and light blue eyes
Your beauty is my curse, my sin, my demise
I fall at your feet, though you know it not
Now the memory of you is all that I've got

Dear Stranger do you remember me too?
Am I the girl in your heart that you wish to pursue?
Am I the memory your mind always drifts back to?
Or am I nothing, just an aquantince to you?



Dear Stranger,

I write to you yet again
You were once the highest, the greatest of men
You were my one and only hope, a beautiful dream
But then you tore apart my heart from seam to seam

You rejected my love, my life, and my soul
From the ashes of words you turned my heart into coal
I do not think I will love another man again
Because on this page that you tore, I wrote with love from my pen

Dear Stranger, will you never think of me anymore?
Is your rejection because of a different girl you adore?
Am I the thing that you hate, the one that you fear?
Or am I your coffin, your death, your sin, your tear?






Dear Stranger,

This is my last note of love to you
After this I forever bid you a grim adieu
Because you were too scared to take the fatal chance
Of telling me that you were caught within my romance

I know now that your heart belonged to me all along
But you thought your courting me would be wrong
You thought I was in love with another man
And that is why, from my heart you ran

Dear Stranger, are you now able to see?
That the man you thought I loved was nothing to me?
But now that you know, my dear, I must now depart
Because fate shall always keep us apart

  1. I loved the second stanza. I liked how the words eyes and demise rhymed. These letters could be turned into a song.

  2. thank you. The way I think when I'm writing actually usually is in song format. :)
