letters to self

I am writing a letter
a letter to myself
I shall never send it
I will keep it with me

I just can't face it
these things I write
the truth is biting
and I am brutal

I just had to be honest
so many failures
I had to mention them
the dreams never pursued

I write because I care
because I am let down
I have been hurt
and your to blame

I can't send it
I will just seal it
the truth sits
never to be opened
