.:] Letters [:.

Thought I'd be a little self-indulgent and post up the lyrics to this song. You can hear part of it - bluescreenmusic/ Music/ songs / letters.

Letters - Music: Sagar Jethani, Lyrics: me

Postcards from places I've never been
Dried flower petals crushed but fragrant
Worn cards with lace and little hearts
Photographs wrapped neatly in ribbons

The letters
Folded and folded
Creases proof of the thousands of times
I read the words
The words I could not send

Our song through paper thin walls
Dog-eared books borrowed but never returned
Blue shirt stolen and filled with smoke
Nights sitting alone the silence between us

I couldn't tell you that I missed you
or that I was thinking of you
We never spoke of such things
No you never said you wanted me, no
So I'll just keep this to myself

The letters
Folded and folded
Creases proof of the thousands of times
I read the words
The words I could not send
