A Not Love Letter

To whom it may concern This started out as a letter to my love But was late on the delivery So now you're reading a heart That took too long to speak up So I vow to never make The same mistake And face regret So to you whom I've never met Let me count the ways "Shall I compare thee to a rose" Bet you can guess how bad the rest goes Somewhere there's a landfill of all the things I never figured out how to say Perfectionist I am That perfectionist be damned Life is a beast of a thing Not a one of us can tame I'd planned the perfect Weekend escape But my get-a-ways Get away Enclosed you'll find Tickets for two So you and someone Go get some sun I heard a song today Reminded me of you But also I got a song For every stranger I meet Passing through Turn the page to someone new Turn the page to someone new A whole pile of Not-Love-Letters I'm stuck on sorting through I've made a list of all the things You should see By Date and Locale Save yourself and delete immediately I've found the best of life Is what's between the lines So if you want my advice Screw the lines Sincerely me
