I just found your letter,

I'm afraid to open it for what it might say.

The piece of paper is as light as a feather,

But the burden of the tragic truth is as heavy as a thousand bricks of clay.



And I wish none of this was real, but then your love for me would had been fake,

And I wish we could be in each other's arms right now, but my heart is about to break.

I've surrounded my whole life around you and I completely forgot about myself,

Purposely giving me all of this undeserving pain before you accidentally ended up hurting yourself.



Ripping out my heart and tossing it in a blender,

Place a stamp in the right hand corner of the envelope and mark it "return to sender".

The water comes rushing in, how long can I hold my breath?

The birth of your livid letter had only caused my untimely death.



I just opened your letter,

I'm afraid to read it for how it might make me feel.

I think it's about time I just surrender,

For I don't wish to imagine what this note might reveal.



And I wish I was blind, but then I wouldn't be able to see your beautiful face,

And I wish I could run away from this mess, but that only means I would have the same problems in a different place.

I've been suffocated by the lies so much that I completely forgot what is true,

I'll tie the noose around my neck and leave my corpse proudly on display so I don?t have a chance to kill you.



I thought love was supposed to be something that lasts forever,

Hey mailman, I do not want this mail, please return it to its sender.

Take my future and dreams and sell it for half of what it's worth,

My early death was a result of your letter's birth.



I just read your letter,

My eyes started to water and my hands started shaking,

I thought that our relationship was getting better,

Well now I can start to feel my soul bleeding and my heart breaking.



And I wish you were dead, but my dreams, they never come true,

And I wish I could just fall asleep, but hat only means I'll be dreaming about you.

Using me without a care and tossing me like a toy on your dirty shelf,

You didn't want to deal with our pain any longer so you abruptly killed yourself.



My depression is merely the epitome of all this atrocious weather,

A deceased letter to the world marked "return to sender".

I look into your eyes and take my very last breath,

The birth of your letter caused my premature death.



I just threw away your letter,

I killed the paper along with my memories of you.

Yesterday you told me we would always be together,

Now we are forever rearranged and through.



And I wish I could push rewind, but do I really want to go back to the start and make the same mistakes again?

And I wish you would just leave me alone, but that only means I would my best and only friend.

Now all I see are the darkest shades of red and gray, even when the sky is in its brightest forms of blue,

Two bullets, one gun; I'll shoot myself twice so I can't kill you.



Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can kill me in a letter,

Take this paper out of the ashes and please return it to its sender.

You're the only girl I'll ever truly love out of the millions on Earth,

I sacrificed my life for your letter's birth.
