Note from the Missed Connections Chief Bottle Finder:
The MC for Maine is a surprisingly robust and active feed. Maybe it’s the abundance of trees or the cold, rocky coastline – but there’s something about those Mainers when it comes to writing a sad love letter. There’s something quietly sentimental about this poem and it makes me wonder if the two sisters are estranged… What do you think?
Missed Connections In Maine
For You… Goodbye
For You... Goodbye
You are my sister, we were born
So innocent, so full of need
There were times we were friends but times I was so cruel
Each night I’d ask for you to watch me as I sleep
I was so afraid of the night
You seemed to move through the places that I feared
You lived inside my world so softly
Protected only by the kindness of your nature
You are my sister
And I love you
May all of your dreams come true
We felt so differently then
So similar over the years
The way we laugh the way we experience pain
So many memories
But there’s nothing left to gain from remembering
Faces and worlds that no one else will ever know
You are my sister
And I love you
May all of your dreams come true
I want this for you
They’re gonna come true (gonna come true)
