Sincerely Strife

Sincerely Strife


To Whom it may concern,

I guess I have not been fast
Fast to respond
But now a whole year has past
Since the day you became gone

I'll admit I was angry
I'll admit I was sad
Sad that you would leave me
Here; alone and mad

But I'm sorry on your last day
I said "I wish we'd never met"
That was a stupid thing to say
You know how I can get

But now I think I've found a cure
That will make my calmness last---
I thought you were my future
But now your just my past

I actually tried on Sunday
To get you off my mind
By going to a cafe
To see what I could find

I bought a cup of coffee
But at it I just stared
It refused to speak to me
And no one seemed to care

I doubt this note will reach you
But it calms my soul to write
I suppose I wish that you
Could know whats on my mind

But don't you worry about me
All I need is time
Within a year-you watch me
Really, I'll be fine

There's not enough daylight for this sort of life---
Its time I listen to my own advice

Sincerely,

Strife
