Return to Sender

Have you ever written an unread letter with an open heart full of unexpressed emotions... Full of pain that has been unaddressed... Compiled with thoughts, truth and regret... A broken heart bleeding with desires unmet... Written fears, secrets and frets... Then you hope it hasn't been read... Because the things you said needed, wanted, deserved an immediate response...  Nothing! Not a word! Not a call! No knock on the door... Not even a note on your car...

  Have you ever written an unread letter, pouring your heart out because you'd done something wrong... Admitting everything - trying to remain strong...  Vulnerability building with every word that leaves your palm... Unsheilding oneself removing your guard... Wanting forgiveness for the pain you've caused... Then you pray it hasn't been read... Hoping it gets lost in the junk mail instead... Its been days since your heart left in an envelope...  Because email was too fast for your heart to cope... With the lack of response to your soul in a note... Nothing... No IM! No Inbox or Status Update... So you wait! 

I've written that letter with my heart sealed in it...  It left me with a dream that he'd return with it... I closed my eyes and took a drift... Pleading that "If its meant to be" wasn't a myth...  And there he was right before my eyes... With every step he took broadening my smile...  So thankful for my unspoiled plan... There he was letter in hand... The door bell rang...  In my mind he had surrendered...  

But the mailman handed me a letter stating "Return to Sender"
