No Plagiarism!mFyUam3j7w1mdk35mJk5posted on PENANA A/N: This is part one of a two part piece of poetry. They're separate poems, but carry the same influence. I originally posted this on my journal entry piece here, but I've changed it into a letter and/or journal entry in verse. It's up to the reader to decide who "_______" is, but I had an idea in my mind when I wrote it. I'd love to hear other opinions though. As always, thanks for the patience, I've been incredibly busy with work and my lab assistant to my Advanced Creative Writing teacher. I've been majorly stressed out with a lot of work for class and trying to set up a connection between my work and LA stuff for a book signing. I'll also be doing a podcast with the author I'm building a connection with, so that should be interesting. As always, enjoy the piece, and please give feedback, it helps so much!968Please respect copyright.PENANAw1iBULn246

Dear “____”8964 copyright protection964PENANA0pmKV3rdyK 維尼
Dear _____,8964 copyright protection964PENANAX5ZYOu77aH 維尼
I expressed all of my hopes and dreams to you. 8964 copyright protection964PENANA1FGHXyE0h7 維尼
As my confidant, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAB56MPgzhb2 維尼
I trusted that you would handle them 8964 copyright protection964PENANA8bCHDNOqgM 維尼
With care. 8964 copyright protection964PENANA49qDYoI44E 維尼
I was always starving 8964 copyright protection964PENANAbmMMAvXgwb 維尼
For your validation and encouragement. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAt7ZaVYuV2q 維尼
You knew how I hated it 8964 copyright protection964PENANAJwWY5iXmsR 維尼
When someone told me 8964 copyright protection964PENANAmlLILsrMZy 維尼
I wasn't good enough. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAIlSzXAwuAh 維尼
Your words kept me breathing and creating. 8964 copyright protection964PENANArb0iAwzj5s 維尼
You left me torn into pieces, 8964 copyright protection964PENANA1qJjWq2a1A 維尼
Just like that poem I wrote for you. 8964 copyright protection964PENANACxirdEyncM 維尼
Remember? 8964 copyright protection964PENANAIIDjs7fim7 維尼
The one you said wasn't good enough? 8964 copyright protection964PENANAgO2IUWAL30 維尼
I write for myself, 8964 copyright protection964PENANA5SqklZ7X4n 維尼
But because you were so selfish, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAWx6IFUnmq1 維尼
I tried to dedicate every page I wrote 8964 copyright protection964PENANAj3D1pNE0S5 維尼
To what you wanted. 8964 copyright protection964PENANANkQ7kFCgnQ 維尼
When you were satisfied 8964 copyright protection964PENANAiwGgZVC9nL 維尼
I felt whole. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAuvFw3ZvLBD 維尼
I wanted--8964 copyright protection964PENANA2tfaTVmB4u 維尼
no, needed--8964 copyright protection964PENANATo1z3M0wm2 維尼
your praise. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAjzNa3mL47Q 維尼
That smile, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAutHKZick04 維尼
Paired with telling me what to write and how 8964 copyright protection964PENANAFTFqa9yrnS 維尼
Made me swallow every bit of resentment, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAcetu276Pxs 維尼
Any bit of pain I felt for my suppressed imagination, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAmvKToak1rR 維尼
And I did it. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAkJaf7sNSUZ 維尼
I did it for you. 8964 copyright protection964PENANARUQ6b6QQfE 維尼
In the end, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAZCTC1oiE2l 維尼
Even when I followed every direction I was pointed in, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAqqOzEUHKGv 維尼
It was never enough. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAonVKqyFbiG 維尼
You wanted more meaning, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAgoDsVLAmaZ 維尼
More eloquence, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAnluF64ffkv 維尼
More emotion, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAxewUAFHSF6 維尼
More, more, more, 8964 copyright protection964PENANANw1PpegBwQ 維尼
Always needing more. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAkT8D0cwe9r 維尼
I don't know how to measure up to those expectations8964 copyright protection964PENANA8KOS4RkP0G 維尼
Because I don't have the strength8964 copyright protection964PENANAFcIjFpszmj 維尼
To keep my chin up when I struggle. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAYEXgTCRP3j 維尼
I don't know how to keep writing 8964 copyright protection964PENANAc10bE8eHCy 維尼
For your sake 8964 copyright protection964PENANAhaWfrlaIVM 維尼
When you're never satisfied. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAm5MfLFDCLt 維尼
No matter how hard I try, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAgah0V1Z5rN 維尼
Will this ever be enough? 8964 copyright protection964PENANArIU23hn1EB 維尼
Will I ever be enough?8964 copyright protection964PENANAFRNHShnzqJ 維尼
I can't find anything to reach for now that you left8964 copyright protection964PENANAIZb9Z2ElNq 維尼
And at some point 8964 copyright protection964PENANAB8siKSd7eZ 維尼
I lost my drive to keep going 8964 copyright protection964PENANAFFEI1BBGcb 維尼
Toward what I want instead of you. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAJ6XKm6BIDB 維尼
You knew having an impact on someone's life was my dream, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAuTPh4nlaa8 維尼
And that writing was my way of doing that, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAuxIGUnIB7w 維尼
But even when you knew about that fragile dream, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAcbHhN8Ohn1 維尼
You told me it would never happen, 8964 copyright protection964PENANA5LZsto5Q5V 維尼
So I believed you 8964 copyright protection964PENANAgcvkCBQzFZ 維尼
And let myself fall into the clutches of8964 copyright protection964PENANANjOztXGnUJ 維尼
Grief and hatred 8964 copyright protection964PENANA5tbe7seDge 維尼
For myself, 8964 copyright protection964PENANABFuYayFZC3 維尼
For you, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAREioFXp2Wx 維尼
For my future.8964 copyright protection964PENANA7CHYSnqd68 維尼
I kept coming back to you 8964 copyright protection964PENANAaZoxKNJFw2 維尼
For my daily fix, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAVZuolw0qFT 維尼
That feeling of being complete. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAyv0QkpRJhk 維尼
But you left me, 8964 copyright protection964PENANANWepKxC723 維尼
And I'm writing this, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAIzJvWNPc2M 維尼
Trying to find something in me 8964 copyright protection964PENANAMZlYbm9qhm 維尼
Other than this emptiness. 8964 copyright protection964PENANATsbC1y60Cs 維尼
I've become numb to the world 8964 copyright protection964PENANAgyJAxezOBD 維尼
Because maybe if I'm numb enough 8964 copyright protection964PENANA7pSRijCcUd 維尼
Nothing will break through and hurt me 8964 copyright protection964PENANAaV0srhyham 維尼
Like your absence does.8964 copyright protection964PENANAsCRdlGbxRT 維尼
You lulled me into a feeling of comfort and trust,8964 copyright protection964PENANAGDnYNtGoZC 維尼
Then screamed words of defeat into my ears. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAXb744ej3KU 維尼
And those words worked into my brain8964 copyright protection964PENANAc3jpJTNVTo 維尼
And under my skin. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAQEKo9FtE4e 維尼
They slid under my skin 8964 copyright protection964PENANAOu4LerUIDL 維尼
And lodged themselves under the surface like acid, 8964 copyright protection964PENANALFcfy37484 維尼
Burning me deeper and deeper. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAeRtDI9Mzry 維尼
Your venom slowly killed all of my happiness and passion. 8964 copyright protection964PENANANqobbpQxBV 維尼
That spark burned out 8964 copyright protection964PENANA3cjX467uu1 維尼
And the one thing I could rely on, 8964 copyright protection964PENANAdSCZr80fTX 維尼
My ability to express myself with a pen and paper, 8964 copyright protection964PENANA6KIJfI20FU 維尼
Was murdered by your verbal abuse. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAQ2sjGkGNzZ 維尼
You destroyed my sanctuary, 8964 copyright protection964PENANACGCgjnRgdB 維尼
lit it up like a bonfire 8964 copyright protection964PENANAjqXMCCtHDj 維尼
And watched as my life's work turned to ash. 8964 copyright protection964PENANAy3zDyFCfsJ 維尼
With every strike of your tongue, 8964 copyright protection964PENANALoNEOWQdrU 維尼
My soul was broken a little more 8964 copyright protection964PENANAz7s4uAGMGE 維尼
Until there was nothing but dust left 8964 copyright protection964PENANAecaOiDVYCe 維尼
And I no longer cared or had any drive.8964 copyright protection964PENANAbn3X2bZQmk 維尼
A/N: That's the first half of a two part poem thing. Thank you so much for reading, lovelies! I've been a little slow updating things, so I'll hopefully post a little more before the school year gets too chaotic. I also have to apply to colleges (oh my goodness I'm going to be in college soon I'm not ready to adult) so that'll take up a good amount of time too.968Please respect copyright.PENANAwhPx40L9d8
