I am a collector of things my sisters would say I'm a hoarder but I actually use the things I collect.

Some of my collections include funny shaped cake pans or cookie cutters which I use.....on occasion.

Besides cookie cutters and cake pans I also save love letters. I've never received one. I only save the ones I write.

They're my prized possession. I keep them locked away in a box my mom has gotten me while away.

The love letters I have written are for boys I have found myself falling in love with, there are five.

Though I do not send the letters, I address each one and place it in an envelope and into the box.

These letters are more of an escape for me. A place where I can write how I feel without persecution or even worse embarrassment.

After I have realized reality I no longer have these feelings for these boys. I can enjoy the simple things in life without wondering does he like blueberries in his pancakes or does he secretly have a cookie cutter collection.

Say that five times fast.

The understanding that no one will read my letters gives me a sense of freedom.

Or so I thought
