Do you know feelings?
That eat your gut?
That horrible, but wonderful passion?
Have you ever felt that!
When you send that first letter
Your heart skips a beat
Unknowingly sending your love
Into the breeze
Thinking
This will go well
What could be wrong
With the letter of a simple love song
No
For me, it never goes well
Ignore the fact that the letter returned shredded
Wanting to know someone never felt so dreaded
I care about what happens
I want to know who did
How can one dismiss it like breathing air
It is just for us
It's important it makes it
She sure doesn't
How can I like something so unwilling
And yet I'm going to start the conversation
Why do I try
It's because I still care
It's just air
