Amman

My Dear Penpal,

I miss hearing from you very much.

I think of you every day, and I wish we were still in touch.

I cry sometimes, because I've lost you. Forever, it seems.

I try to console myself with hope. Hope that someday you will write back. Hope that someday we will meet again, and have joy together in our meeting.

I dreamed of you last night.

My heart opened to you when we met. Something happened to it.

Now, I feel like it has closed up again. 

Retreat is my option. Solitude. Loneliness. I seek these now. I want away from everyone.

I long for you, friend.

It seems that the thorns of rejection have pierced me, their poison gives life to new thorns, mine, against the world.

Your Penpal,
