The Letter Poem by Stuart Logan

The Letter



Dear Mind,
I currently write to you in a state of infatuation.
I feel like I am about to burst,
and I throb with suspense.
I am still waiting for the answer that any actions taken should have already answered.

I ask you to please remind me that not all is as it seems,
and you send your logic and intellect to guide me on my path, and stop me from straying.

From,
Heart.
------
Dear Heart,
I write to you in a state of caution.
You may have felt what seems omnipotent, but my intellect will have no persuausion on you while you fell this way.
You must simply guide yourself, and I may attempt occasionanal insights that will redetermine your opinions upon your infatuation.

I beg of you to keep your sanity and not to wander from your path, and I sincerely hope that these words alone will prevent that.

From,
Mind.
-------
Dear Mind,
I write to you in a state of intoxication,
Why am I in such a state?
For my infatuation turned to obssession, and eventually into heartbreak.
Your kind and intelligent words failed to make me see sense,
But I appreciate them, all the same.

From,
Heart.
--------
Dear Heart,
I write to you in a state of sorrow,
Your broken emotions bring me to tears, for they may heal, but will still scar, and I lie not.

This is short letter and I plead for you not to take this too hurtfully.

But you will see sense eventually, and will love again, but I beg for you to live for it first.

From,
Mind.
--------
______________________________
Dear Body,
I write to you in a state of unexplicable bliss and yet sadness.
I write to explain what has caused us to part ways.
Previously, the letters you read between heart and mind tell you much fo the story.
But unfortunately, Heart did not heed Mind's warning and may have forced you to die of your own will.
I regret this deeply and hope that you will forgive Heart just as I have.

From,
Soul.
