Unsent Letters

I wrote a letter to a friend as if time and distance didn't happen;

I wrote a letter to a friend as if I was just talking to him.

I wrote a letter to a friend detailing how my days went,

I wrote a letter to a friend with all the joys and tears 

                                                         I wish I could have shared with him.

I wrote a letter to a friend about the new friends and faces I've seen,

I wrote a letter to a friend gushing of all the places I've been;

I wrote a letter to a friend lamenting of my sorrows and woes,

I wrote a letter to a friend and imagined myself in his shoes.

I wrote a letter to a friend whilst tears streamed down my face,

I wrote letters to a friend and wondered if I sent them would he feel less betrayed?

I wrote these letters to a friend while imagining his replies;

I wrote these letters to a friend but I didn't know it was going to be our goodbye.
