Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGH IGGJJK GLMNGO MPQDARSG ETUVAW VEEXYZA2 AB2C2G EEEG| A year has gone by since you stroke me with a letter | A |
| A letter that melted the snow in my heart | B |
| A letter that saw the sweet dripping tears on my cheeks | C |
| In all the softened tone of your constructive phrases | D |
| I got hold on to one word communication | E |
| You caught me off guard I must confess | F |
| The passion that was loaded in those words shoved me into a journey | G |
| A discovery of us | H |
| - | |
| Complaint complaint complaint as you put it | I |
| Here I begun by magnifying the magic in three | G |
| Three which I described as the beautiful mask concealing the ugly | G |
| Inside lives the most heartbreaking being called the truth | J |
| See I travelled back in time catching you in your youth | J |
| The time you were cornered to let out the phrase you nursed since our eyes met | K |
| - | |
| I love you the beginning of the magic three | G |
| I and you stand at the edge of the phrase | L |
| In the middle there is love and what is love | M |
| I begun to think it s just a means to an end | N |
| Maybe it s just a vehicle which I and you ride to our destiny | G |
| Perhaps it is a catalyst of some sort | O |
| - | |
| Is what we speak feel write communicate love | M |
| But taking from your misjudgment of my complaints | P |
| I have realized that in times we existed in silence | Q |
| I spoke lots of speeches | D |
| I expressed my emotions like no other | A |
| In that time you are just a projection of my world | R |
| You respond according to my desires and interests | S |
| I am your surrogate you are you without autonomy | G |
| - | |
| Oh how sweet to hear you speak of transformation | E |
| Covert ion of your emotional state | T |
| How your feeling condenses into ink | U |
| The ink freezes on paper and sublimates into a feeling | V |
| In the same process I will try to sublimate the feeling on paper | A |
| Melt it into ink and let it evaporate into a feeling for you | W |
| - | |
| Oh my dear you in the same line of returning the feeling | V |
| We change the processes thus we gain miscommunication | E |
| The trend which lead us to misinterpretation | E |
| This provokes misunderstanding and we end up doing the wrong things | X |
| Wrong leads us to a point of despair and disappointment | Y |
| Thus we start afresh this gives us a job to do as lovers | Z |
| Hence we grow old in each other s arms | A2 |
| - | |
| If your letter was meant to rearrange this order | A |
| Then it was plotting to kill the middle man | B2 |
| The death of the middle man would lead to chaos | C2 |
| The death of magic three | G |
| - | |
| P S if I missed the point of your letter it is because of communication | E |
| See we all hear what we want and not what is being spoken | E |
| We omit the necessary information to generalize on one | E |
| In most of the times we are caught up in a fallacy | G |

Poet's note: I wrote this poem after a friend of mind broke up with his lover simply because they took each other for granted. His lover complained of poor communication from the guys side and I feel communication is a two way street and that its not always about what we hear but also what we can observe.
