BONEPILE

Another message from my heart scrawled on 20 bond and stained by hopeful tears is tucked away in a secret drawer. It has become the graveyard for the feelings I can't bring myself to share openly with you. I often think it is because you are too perfect from a distance. However, love unrequited is so very sweet for a time, but that same sweet love can sour with the wanting and never having. I have poured out my heart time and time again only to surrender the fruit of my efforts to an old desk drawer that pleads no more.#draftFull.

Challenge

Tell me about the best day or the worst day in your life, but write it in second person.
