Love Letter

Letter left typed in and out 
A keystroke lifted to begin
The space between the letter the gap
A loving strike to represent 
To write to expel the letter with love
Sincerely noting each stroke left upon
A page white blank space looking empty
Combining the timing with words on screen
To bring to life a letter typed intermingling
Between lines spent time written 
The love to take to make and spread
Leaving each one to form a text
Messaging the closeness kept
Divided letter by letter the love built with breath
To take care of the words we send
Technology meant the union seen in wording
A letter of love to the undeserving
When looking at love as one letter first
The eyes to see taught once upon a time to read
One eye right the other left
With both in use we may learn our best
Love letter to you distant daily

Thank you for being available to ask. You may have noticed I decided to take the time to simply guess on all my other poems until I can better educate myself on the possible forms I unknowingly wrote. ;-)

Instead of 'I do not know' you can call this one a free verse poem.. This is a very good poem and I like the simple line about one eye right and the other left, its simple, but its that kind of line that makes you say, oh yeah, brilliant!

Thank you Silent One. Your comment and suggestion to change the form of my poem is one I have been seeking due to my unfinished education. Each time I read that there are moments of brilliance and like from another poet with more skill than I it is very encouraging. Have a great day!
