Please sew my mouth shut
Before I dig my grave any deeper.
I pray for sleep...
I pray for relief...
But, I made a mistake,
I wrote a letter.
The envelope, I planned to hide -
A letter I meant
To stay unsent,
Now I realize someone mailed it;
And I'm mortified.

Reason for writing:
I'm sorry Peter. I never wanted you to get that last letter, my mother mailed it. I stayed up all night and just wrote what was in my heart, but I didn't want you to ever know...I knew if you got that letter I would never speak again with you the same. You know too much, and I have been taught a lesson. Someday you will know why this all was and is. For now, my mouth is glued. There are some things some people just can't handle. We'll run into each other again eventually, and please don't take it to heart if I'm not able to speak.
