No Plagiarism!E0qQZsyZoHxCCqgGFBg8posted 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!845Please respect copyright.PENANAnIRwEY8Yx5

Dear “____”8964 copyright protection841PENANAWZFkdhTFfu 維尼
Dear _____,8964 copyright protection841PENANAqgOJX1HiQS 維尼
I expressed all of my hopes and dreams to you. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAZ8fRIhcxJU 維尼
As my confidant, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAllO3uvMEvj 維尼
I trusted that you would handle them 8964 copyright protection841PENANAlHX4aPYJwg 維尼
With care. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAZ18D53icIn 維尼
I was always starving 8964 copyright protection841PENANA5HdDpazNv1 維尼
For your validation and encouragement. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAN2F0IBNAo3 維尼
You knew how I hated it 8964 copyright protection841PENANAdxuVtMle8d 維尼
When someone told me 8964 copyright protection841PENANAAMbgz3wqUM 維尼
I wasn't good enough. 8964 copyright protection841PENANA5DiBQBa6XM 維尼
Your words kept me breathing and creating. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAnfWPSXnwXC 維尼
You left me torn into pieces, 8964 copyright protection841PENANALBrEMH79eE 維尼
Just like that poem I wrote for you. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAzWR2vGbRHf 維尼
Remember? 8964 copyright protection841PENANAGrW5D6CF12 維尼
The one you said wasn't good enough? 8964 copyright protection841PENANAbCAn6EX5RX 維尼
I write for myself, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAW2S1RbOFGz 維尼
But because you were so selfish, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAEjseGnK3R0 維尼
I tried to dedicate every page I wrote 8964 copyright protection841PENANARxfQZ3S45y 維尼
To what you wanted. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAaYSkxl5B2a 維尼
When you were satisfied 8964 copyright protection841PENANA8UHnxsdtV7 維尼
I felt whole. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAHpCb9ELglf 維尼
I wanted--8964 copyright protection841PENANAxAR12kGzJi 維尼
no, needed--8964 copyright protection841PENANAI9yAWcA9kc 維尼
your praise. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAYgjPU7Zj7j 維尼
That smile, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAkeLgC3Pwvw 維尼
Paired with telling me what to write and how 8964 copyright protection841PENANAvwBE8PY1Yh 維尼
Made me swallow every bit of resentment, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAATijZkYNMU 維尼
Any bit of pain I felt for my suppressed imagination, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAiJG3J3aPul 維尼
And I did it. 8964 copyright protection841PENANA6AyGRUDbUN 維尼
I did it for you. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAYjpvOOL49j 維尼
In the end, 8964 copyright protection841PENANA4MLHt7JY5A 維尼
Even when I followed every direction I was pointed in, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAQnNyXCFLH1 維尼
It was never enough. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAA8KxqGdFhT 維尼
You wanted more meaning, 8964 copyright protection841PENANANokWd1DPP7 維尼
More eloquence, 8964 copyright protection841PENANA7dwBbcrLe8 維尼
More emotion, 8964 copyright protection841PENANALjPcpSo2cc 維尼
More, more, more, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAzESOk6g72G 維尼
Always needing more. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAf8Ewtf1zmV 維尼
I don't know how to measure up to those expectations8964 copyright protection841PENANAskg4RC2EWC 維尼
Because I don't have the strength8964 copyright protection841PENANA9z4lrAGvvB 維尼
To keep my chin up when I struggle. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAfrBGnvVG2K 維尼
I don't know how to keep writing 8964 copyright protection841PENANAx7mBwI8mUx 維尼
For your sake 8964 copyright protection841PENANAstdbvrH0fX 維尼
When you're never satisfied. 8964 copyright protection841PENANA5GxINGem3d 維尼
No matter how hard I try, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAKXfO2RYo5S 維尼
Will this ever be enough? 8964 copyright protection841PENANAn5HDO5IVTA 維尼
Will I ever be enough?8964 copyright protection841PENANAMIrEPwRiBT 維尼
I can't find anything to reach for now that you left8964 copyright protection841PENANAf5Zk4i6jBQ 維尼
And at some point 8964 copyright protection841PENANABEHzGwsu0O 維尼
I lost my drive to keep going 8964 copyright protection841PENANAqUX7eiyvlh 維尼
Toward what I want instead of you. 8964 copyright protection841PENANALdRouQJG64 維尼
You knew having an impact on someone's life was my dream, 8964 copyright protection841PENANA4hMdtB7gvk 維尼
And that writing was my way of doing that, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAgw61idG3Gm 維尼
But even when you knew about that fragile dream, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAciJAfiS6ZO 維尼
You told me it would never happen, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAS7GHJR9C5Z 維尼
So I believed you 8964 copyright protection841PENANAGGIPzkUQtZ 維尼
And let myself fall into the clutches of8964 copyright protection841PENANAwcCs3iwoIS 維尼
Grief and hatred 8964 copyright protection841PENANAfVUaomDXV5 維尼
For myself, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAg4APnujMzB 維尼
For you, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAO9JdZruEHs 維尼
For my future.8964 copyright protection841PENANAOJuPC3Hami 維尼
I kept coming back to you 8964 copyright protection841PENANAoA3FY3CXfK 維尼
For my daily fix, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAfxfn6wHEXL 維尼
That feeling of being complete. 8964 copyright protection841PENANA5RSThRQdwa 維尼
But you left me, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAvDhEBTKSj3 維尼
And I'm writing this, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAulgT65cVV0 維尼
Trying to find something in me 8964 copyright protection841PENANAYiTGcrPuYx 維尼
Other than this emptiness. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAkhaA1JffE7 維尼
I've become numb to the world 8964 copyright protection841PENANAnGEH7irCCf 維尼
Because maybe if I'm numb enough 8964 copyright protection841PENANAAaoFX3Ehls 維尼
Nothing will break through and hurt me 8964 copyright protection841PENANAEbOleQelAk 維尼
Like your absence does.8964 copyright protection841PENANAmg8vSi6RSH 維尼
You lulled me into a feeling of comfort and trust,8964 copyright protection841PENANA1AcBJDTfcJ 維尼
Then screamed words of defeat into my ears. 8964 copyright protection841PENANA81WrUuERZv 維尼
And those words worked into my brain8964 copyright protection841PENANA7gQnmQiKuM 維尼
And under my skin. 8964 copyright protection841PENANA0QN5YtUi1K 維尼
They slid under my skin 8964 copyright protection841PENANAVv3tDaOOBe 維尼
And lodged themselves under the surface like acid, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAznoQj6TWe8 維尼
Burning me deeper and deeper. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAXBDbkuJhjD 維尼
Your venom slowly killed all of my happiness and passion. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAYr8OzsaEoK 維尼
That spark burned out 8964 copyright protection841PENANA9nHgZP4BIU 維尼
And the one thing I could rely on, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAosyOa9LS8i 維尼
My ability to express myself with a pen and paper, 8964 copyright protection841PENANATHEhAuV0EE 維尼
Was murdered by your verbal abuse. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAFAGkhRi5t7 維尼
You destroyed my sanctuary, 8964 copyright protection841PENANApcZxUwsRcN 維尼
lit it up like a bonfire 8964 copyright protection841PENANAKNZdVipWvM 維尼
And watched as my life's work turned to ash. 8964 copyright protection841PENANAR86vKx5zuz 維尼
With every strike of your tongue, 8964 copyright protection841PENANAvE2dKUfPZB 維尼
My soul was broken a little more 8964 copyright protection841PENANAWtmgEKaLfd 維尼
Until there was nothing but dust left 8964 copyright protection841PENANAH1uMvUTige 維尼
And I no longer cared or had any drive.8964 copyright protection841PENANAwP5Pe870qi 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.845Please respect copyright.PENANAPfZ4PtESa3
