A Letter to a Friend

by Adelaine

To my dear friend:
How are you?
I hope you know,
I care for you.
There is no day,
I think not 'bout you.
Yes, my dear friend,
These words are true.

I hope that one day,
You will write back,
And recognize me,
Like way, way back.

This letter I write,
In case we part.
A short letter,
Deep down from my heart.

Now my friend,
Goodbye at last.
A painful meaning,
These words do bring.
So keep this letter,
And please remember,
That even though we're far apart,
You'll forever remain,
Inside my heart.
