How many times have I written your name?
Again and again I have written your name.
Write over and over just that, your name.
As if to tell my heart who it is that has been lost.
As if to tell myself what it is that I will never have.
I pen the letters one by one, calling for you.
I mark them down and sense that I am waiting.
How many times have I written your name?
Oh the countless times that I have written that name.

The repetition is so effective here, echoing the theme of the poem. Very well executed!

glad to see you're still in the blogging district. :) what's happened to your own blog? i can't seem to be able to access it anymore.
I like this. The hope and the hoping going on and on, a vicious cycle.

a vicious cycle indeed! "love is so short, forgetting is so long" eh? :)
