Letter To You

I know you,
can read this.
This whole world,
can too.

I don't write these,
to give you hints.
Or to whine,
like a little kid.

I write these poems,
to get things deep within,
Out and on to,
something else.

For if I keep this in,
Emotions and worries,
Keep adding on,
and I become someone else.

You've seen my worsts,
You've seen my bests.
Please I beg,
Remember my bests.

For I write this letter to you all,
If you want to know.
Know my thoughts,
and my view.

All you have to do is read.
I give it my all,
and you can see my soul,
or Life on paper.

So my Beloved,
Don't take it the wrong way,
Use it to better understand,
the words I can not say.

For this side, 
maybe the side,
that won you over.
I am still here.

This is my Letter to you,
My Beloved.

Your words are very true. It a way for expression and sanity that the world can choose to see. And yes you do learn a lot about someone through their poems. Corinne
