Letters (In response to Utada Hikaru's 'Letters')

A Poem by Crossbroken
"

Utada Hikaru is one of my favorite japanese female artists. I have at least 5-7 of her songs on my i-pod, whenever I heard her single "Letters", it motivated me to write one, in her lover's point of view.

"

This letter is for my distant lover,
Seven bottles in the ocean I have just discovered,
Each of your letters discribing your love for me,
But my failure to respond had lead for your hate towards me,
I want to write back to you but I fear it might be too late,
By now, you may have already found another mate,
This vast wind that always sings,
I felt that I have clipped your wings,
Ah, my love I regret leaving you,
Ah, I know there's nothing I can do,
Ah, everyday I listen to your beautiful song,
How the hell should I go on?
All of your letters, spread across my desktop,
Missing you hurts so much I could just drop,
These seven bottles represent the months we've been apart,
When I left I never looked away as I depart,
Baby could you please gave me another chance?
They said that loves deserves a second chance,
Ah, I wonder if you will ever take me back,
Despite all the time together we lacked,
This letter I worte sealed with a thousand apologies,
Ah, Even now I'm on my knees begging you please,
I am praying this letter returns to you my distant lover,
Hopefully, we can return to one another.

The words you've chosen convey believable anguish and sorrow that an estranged love could well experience. "Letters" is one of my favorite Hikaru Utada songs too. "Tokyo nights" and "Traveling" are also pretty high on my list.
