My dear,

return to sender

My dear,

I got the devil in my soul

He's burning a gaping hole

For all the things I know

I know I can never go home

Because my eyes aren't the same

All they see now is the pain

There is no black or white

There's just cigarettes sifting the smoke of gray

I always thought I'd save you

Or hell you would save me

But now I've learned the hard way that there aint no dreams ah free

When you read this letter 

I will be gone

When you read this letter 

it will sound as nothing more than a song

Believe it or not I wish I could have been better

but in the end

I'm nothing more than words in this damn letter

You see

I got the devil in my soul

He's burning a gaping hole

For all the things I know

Baby, I'm truly sorry 

But I know now I can never come home. 

the end

by the unknown sith

this is quite a love letter with sadness filled. the lines and repetition emphasize a painful void thats burning like hell - "I got the devil in my soul, He's burning a gaping hole", good expressions. the way it starts - my dear and ends with - the end, it's a story playing out with "the end"! nicely done, strong emotions, love and pain painted with words. thanks for writing and sharing.
