THE LAST LETTER

Pᴏᴇᴛʀʏ

So, a lot of people asked me about the alternate ending of 'The Last Letter' and I was like, "It's based on a poetry that I wrote earlier."

So here it is, the sad ending of 'The Last Letter', in form of a poetry.

Note: The idea of the story was definitely from the poetry, but the story and this poetry are totally different.

I hope you like it:)

THE UNSENT LETTERS (Rachel's Pov)

Remember our first meet?
You, moving into my neighbourhood.
Because I'll never forget,
your first 'Hi' to me in those backyard woods.

I definitely was nervous,
To even had talked to you;
But still I was so curious,
To know more about you.

You were every girl's dream then,
& I knew you were too good for me.
But it was too late when
I realised, I loved thee (you)

We became best friends,
but there were things I couldn't tell you;
Afraid our friendship would end,
better keep my love hidden from you.

I thought of revealing my feelings,
but was too coward to do so;
So I confessed them in my writings,
In letters to you, without an address though.

Those letters were my heart's open book,
Including prayers for your happiness and glory.
Kept safe in a place where no one can look,
With all my unsaid words and untold stories.

You were so busy with Scarlett,
Never noticed how much I loved you;
& I was glad I kept it a secret,
Because I knew, I could never have you.

THE LAST LETTER (Lucas's Pov)

The most beautiful moment of my life,
Was meeting you for the first time.
I've said this once to you,
& I'll say it a hundred times.

I had my Mom to love me,
But you were there to support me;
I don't know how I'll ever explain,
How much you mean to me.

You knew my relation with dad,
Had never been better, can never be best;
When he was busy with his future plans,
You promised me you'll stay till last.

I never thought I'd fall for you,
& I'd want my best friend to be my wife.
And trust me when I say this,
That was the best feeling of my life.

I was confused about how you felt,
So I stepped in your room to confess.
Not finding you, I decided to leave,
When suddenly I found a letter case.

I saw the letters meant for me,
Without address, nor being sent;
Curious enough, I read them all,
& I was actually overwhelmed.

Finally we were together,
Happy to know each other's love.
Now the past didn't even matter, 
Because you were my present & my future.

I never knew our journey was short,
& one day you'll leave.
Without any goodbye, without any hug,
Didn't you imagine how I'll live?

Years passed thinking about you,
Because I promised to love you for eternity.
I waited long but you never came back,
Now old age was getting over my sanity.

Later, Emily explained you were dead,
Leaving behind, a last letter piece.
I cried hard that you were gone & I misunderstood,
But glad now I could rest in peace.
