To Write...

I write to give myself to you. The “Happy Birthday” card exclaims, “I’m excited to celebrate this milestone with you.” The “Congrats Grad” letter affirms, “I’m proud of who you are,” while the “Sympathy” note expresses, “I grieve with you in this time of loss.” You write back so that I can carry a piece of you with me. Your “Best Wishes” note avows, “You will not be forgotten.” Your “Thinking of You” letter confirms, “I treasure our friendship,” and your “I Love You” card proclaims, “You’re the only one for me.” I write to know and be known.
