Poems - You once sent me a letter

You once sent me a letter

by ericdn

You once sent me a letter,
Didn’t expect it at all.
But nothing could be better,
For my answer you did call.

You once sent me a letter,
All you told me was so true.
There was no greater pleasure:
Friendship started, this I knew.

You once sent me a letter,
We learned about each other.
Not just school, life, and weather:
Your words, then, they went farther.

You once sent me a letter,
About me you said you cared.
My joy no one could measure.
All my feelings I declared.

You once sent me a letter,
My heart grew wings, and it flew.
In you I found real treasure,
And I said that I love you.

You once sent me a letter,
You couldn’t believe my words.
From me you felt the pressure,
What I wrote you found absurd.

You once sent me a letter,
And told me you had found love.
I read it without leisure:
It wasn’t me you thought of.

You once sent me a letter,
And it all came to an end.
No longer we’re together.
But will you still be my friend?

I once wrote you a letter,
Don’t know if you will read it.
And I’ll await your answer,
For the past we can’t forget.

I once wrote you a letter,
Love and health for you I wish.
Will you send me another?
I truly earned this anguish.

Eric, the first line repeat isn't strong enough to be used through the poem. First word caps don't help your cause either. The phrases throughout the poem are cliché. You're a good writer; you can write better than this.
