The Heart of A Poet

Letters In A Bottle

Letters in a bottle.
I wonder who came up with that conception.
The idea of putting a handwritten letter in a bottle and floating it in the sea.
I mean the idea sounds so inviting and relaxing.
The idea seems so perfect, like it's the perfect way of letting go of all bottled up obstacles in ones life.

Letters in a bottle.
I did that one day.
I got tired of holding it in and sat down to write out how I felt.
And so I sat, and wrote and wrote and wrote and wrote until my pencil was no more.
I wrote out my feelings for a woman who broke my heart.
I wrote out my feelings of what it felt like to be bullied because I was different and didn't fit in.
I wrote out how hatred for the world and how they make other people who aren't the same feel unloved and unliked , not wanted.
I sincerely hate the world and all the lies it tells our friends and family members.

Letters in a bottle.
I hope one day you find them.
I hope you read them, and feel what I feel
I hope you cry one day knowing the sadness that I felt
Please find my letters and save them.
So that one day you can pass them on to your loved ones and that it can spark a change.

Letters in a bottle
What a fun way to write
Letters in a bottle
Such a fun thing to do
Just to see your writings float away at sea
