US, Part One
For you…
Oh, for you I did everything
Right. I
Gave you all
I had, but your
Velvet heart
Eroded, leaving a vast emptiness.
But, you had me wrapped in the
Utopia you made. I
Truly believed you had good intentions.
Now, you're begging me for
Everything you threw away. Your
Velvet heart is gone, and I
Eagerly turn you away. What is even
Right now?
Forgive me...
Oh, for now I have done the opposite of
Right. I’m no better than you.
Getting a taste of the bitterness
Eating at your heart, I’ve never been so
Terrified at what I’ve become.
US, Part Two
What do you believe? I
Have no beliefs
Anymore. I’m
Terrified at what we’ve done.
Have you thought of me lately?
A year ago, you’d have thought about my
Velvet heart.
Even if I lead you on, you’d think that.
We’ve
Evolved. And I don’t
Believe in
Evolution.
Could it be Real?
Or is it simply a wish?
My core is bitter.
Eating at me. Do you feel this way, too?
US, Part Three
We were never real.
Ever.
Are you just a dream? Or are you
Real?
Either way, we were never real.
Going away, you
Only see me.
Now, I’m blind to your
Emotions. Even as you cry.
US, Part Four
We were complete together.
How we’ve changed
Ever since. Were we ever
Real?
Even you don’t know.
How lonely it is, to be in
A one-sided love. To this
Very day, I know I acted
Evil. But why can’t
You just forgive me?
Oh, how I wonder, what new
Utopia are you in now?
Gone now, you are
Only blind to me.
Never again will you love me.
Even if I love you completely.
US, Part Five
I’m
Moderately calm. But not for
Long.
Only your
Strength could
Tame my crazy.
Why did
I leave you? I
Thought I
Hated you, but,
Oh, I was so wrong.
Us is gone.
Terror has set in instead.
You knew the
Only truth was within
Us. Why did I leave?
US, Part Six
You tore at my soul.
Only you knew the cracks in my
Utopia, and you let them spread. You
Really hurt me,
Even though you don’t know it.
And why do I care so much? I
Never cared about anyone.
I’ve
Decided you weren’t worth
It. You’re the
Only one who doesn’t know it. Your
The only one who left me, idiot.
US, Part Seven
My hand is shaking as I picture
You reading my
Letter.
Every inch of my body is shaking with
Terror. Are you going to write back?
To bad I can’t see the future. Will you
Even bother to
Read this?
The envelope is
On now, and
You will
Open it in a few hours. Your
Utopia is gone, but we aren’t.
US, Part Eight
How are you?
Oh, and where are you?
Please forgive me? Now
Even I know I’ve been a jerk.
US, Part Nine
I
Miss you every day. Why
Couldn’t I see that you were sorry?
Occasionally, I even
Miss your Utopia.
I wonder if it can be our Utopia.
Now I realize we could make something more of it.
Going away, I couldn’t see that. All I could see was my
Hatred towards you, and
Only you.
Missing you is like missing me. I now miss
Everything. Even my old life.
US, Part Ten
Your doing WHAT?!
Occasionally I can
Understand what you do, but WHAT? You’ve
Really decided what your going to do?
Evidently, you have. When you were
Going away,
Only
I knew why you did it. You
Never wanted to see me again, and now you’re
Gone.
What are you doing? Do you still
Hate me?
Evidently not, otherwise you wouldn’t be coming home. Are you
Really coming home?
Even for me?
US, Part Eleven
The lights are off.
I’ve packed everything. Every
Little thing. I
Look back at what I’ve done, and
I hate myself. You will
See I’m better than before. How is
Everything at home? Is
Everything going well?
You missed me. I was the
Only one who couldn’t see your
Utopia breaking.
And I was the one who broke it.
Generally, I
Act better than that. But
I was so angry at you. That will
Never happen again.
US, Part Twelve
I
Can’t believe you’re really coming!
And you’ve already packed! You’ve
Never done something like
This before!
Wait.
Are you sure about this?
I know you feel sure, but what if something
Terrible happens again? I’m
To worried about what might happen.
Our life is finally coming together. I knew you would
See that we worked well together.
Everything is happening so fast...
Even the days are faster…
You’re the best person ever! I
Only hope you believe me when I say that. My
Utopia will be better with you.
US, Part Thirteen
You bounce up and down.
Only you can get away with doing that in this
Utopia. Now I
See you. I see you are sorry for
Everything wrong we’ve made.
Even the time I tripped you.
Missing you was awful. And I knew,
Eventually, I wouldn’t miss you.
Now I know why I won’t miss you.
Our future is set, our lies are gone.
What we’ve done wrong has melted away into our stronger love.
US, Part Fourteen
You are finally back.
Our
Utopia is now ours. For
Real though.
Everything is real.
And we’ve seen our
Terrible faults. And we’ve forgiven each other.
How are you feeling? I hope
Our future is perfect.
My Utopia is your Utopia,
Everything is perfect when you’re back.

Okay, okay, I know it's cheesy, and not written the best. But it was really fun to write, and I enjoyed it. I made it for my sister's birthday awhile back, and she really liked it. I hope you did to. Wait, sidenote; the parts alternate characters. One is the boy, two is the girl.
(Also, if you want to know what the acrostics were, here they are:
FORGIVE BUT NEVER FORGET
WHAT HAVE WE BECOME
WE ARE GONE
WHERE HAVE YOU GONE
IM LOST WITHOUT YOU
MY LETTER TO YOU
HOPE
COMING HOME
YOURE GOING WHERE
TILL I SEE YOU AGAIN
YOU SEE ME NOW
YOURE HOME )
