A Letter to Mr. Keating Your F1 visa is calling you for the last call to submit a paper “To love that strong thou must leave ere long.” We met there with notarization, tax return, Gre and 1099 questions I saw you.

Our story began behind bars with the broken, Displaying our armor with truths left unspoken. Through the gates each day, our counselor hats on, Where pain wore a face, and hope felt long gone. You, with your wisdom and counselor’s grace, Me, burnt out but still showing my face. We stitched up souls with words and care, In a world where few...

Good morning there Here I come.. With nothing in hand But promise of the better you I lament no more… The torment of the past Remain in the past Here I pass my greetings.

Little girl, don't you give up now, Unravel that quizzical brow. Run like a roar, not with dread, Stand tall, hold high your head. Remember the words your mother said: "O sweet daughter of mine, Let the whole world see you shine, Everything will be fine, O sweet daughter of mine." Become an alchemist, See through the mist. Turn the pain into your...

They call you my ex— like you were just another chapter, just another name to forget. But how do I forget the girl who made forever feel real? You weren’t my past. You were my present, my always. The one I whispered dreams to at 2 AM, the one I laughed with until my ribs ached and my guard fell. They say time heals. But time can’t...

On a spring day in the afternoon sun I write these words to you It's here that I've died and been reborn thousands of times I've been scattered amongst the cirrus clouds that are swirling through the sapphire sky I've shed my skin and found myself anew with the budding leaf of green I've buried the ashes of my previous...

You probably feel like the world is against you. This letter is for that young woman from fifty years ago. She was eighteen years old; that was me.

As I sit to write to you, your soul in its depth I see And it speaks to me, still giving endless motivation.

Thought I perhaps should let all my friends see, How touched I was on finding this letter to me, Found by mistake, after so many years, I collapsed into buckets of tears, A treasure bequeathed to me, was meant to be. POST-SCRIPT: As the writing is faint in the scan above I have typed it out for ease of legibility. Abu...
