Burn This

Letter To C:

There is much to say. Words that I won't speak aloud to you. Words only to be written here, to exist only for you to never read them nor hear them. 

Your presence came at an unexpected, opportune time. I don't think neither one of us anticipated such a union. One that was a short-lived roller coaster ride that ended with an appetite unsatiated. 

I wish I could tell you All of my story. Sometimes, I think, some would have a better understanding of why I do what I do...why I am the way I am...but then it comes off like excuse after excuse and it's like those sequels no one really wants to see but do anyway and regret spending their money...wishing they could have those hours back. 

Yet, I digress...knowing full well there IS a purpose for this letter. I wish to tell you this:

I'm sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you. 
                                 I love you. 

It's a Hawaiian prayer called Ho'oponopono. Maybe we can pretend that I've just whispered it in your ear, kissed your lips softly and looked deeply into your eyes with complete love, total acceptance and heartfelt gratitude. 

On second thought...
   Let's not pretend. 

With infinite gratitude and love,
               Athena <3
