Dear child of joy,
even though you may not be with me;
I start to think about how we could have been;
if you hadn't bravely died
that six months ago.
I'd just like to say that I love you; and all the things you stood for.
Even though you're resting place is six feet under;
you're always six feet wide in my heart.
I love you a lot
Dear Rob,
You are the best boyfriend I have ever had. I Really think I'm falling in love. I don't care if we live pretty far away and my mom hates you. I love you and that's all that matters. You treat me better than any other guy ever has. I wish she could just see that. I know I hated you for so long but now I realize that hate was just covering my true feelings. I love you and I never want this to end. You are the best thing to ever happen to me, and I don't care about your anger issues or any of that. I just want us to be together forever.
Dear Andrew,
You are the cutest boy in class. All the girls like you .But I like you for your great personality. By the way you're a very nice sweet and sensitive guy.
Dear Heretract,
Thank you for the 1,000 rubies you gave me the other day.
All the best with love and kisses,
Wendy
Dear You,
I really have no idea why I'm doing this. I met you what seems like forever ago, when anything was possible. That was the most amazing day of my life. I had my chance, and I lost it. If someone up in the sky decides to grant me another, I'll take it, take it with anything and everything I have. Sure, I can kid myself that I'm over you and other boys will come and go, but I look back, and there's been nobody else. There's never ever been anybody else. Your memory is carved deep on my heart, and it hurts. Hurts when you demonstrate what I could have had to some faceless girl. I'm everything wrong for you, but you're so right for me. Every single love song reminds me of you and I believe I'm going crazy with what you're doing to me. I really can't imagine anybody else on this planet feeling like this. I'd sell my soul to hold you in my arms just one moment. So please, give me the courage to tell you how I feel and that I would never make the mistake of doing what I did ever again, and put a smile back on my face.
I'm not even the same person anymore.
But please, if nothing changes from now, just stay beautiful.
Dear JTM,
I loved you ever since the fourth grade. When I first met you it was love at first sight. I kind of think you kind of like me at least a little. Anyway I told you that I didn't like you but it's not true I am so sorry I had to lie to you to make myself feel better but it didn't and look at us. Now we are both in sixth grade in the same school and I do not have any classes with you, plus you have a girlfriend.
If I could have I would have. I love you but now you're gone. How would I know if you loved me or not?. You were just here and now you're gone. I thought we would be together forever. It's not your fault it happens...I know I shouldn't cry, but I loved you. You're gone now, but I'll never forget you. They tell me not to get over it but all I wanted to do was just say good-bye.
Dear Jack,
I know that you haven't been at my school for very long, but I know how much you fancy me and now thinking about you, I just know you're the one. Please, feel my love for you and give it all back to me. We'll be perfect together, even my friends think that too! :)
Dear Zack,
Last year was super fun, we sat next to each other and had secret little crushes. But this year, now that we never see each other, it is starting to fade. I really want the flame to be red hot, so do you, and I think that we should try to make it work. Like, boyfriend and girlfriend. I'm gonna talk to you tomorrow, I love you. (That was hard for me to write) But I do.
-Kali
Dear Mike, I have to admit something but I do not want you to laugh at me. This is hard but I have to do it. I've always liked you but I'm moving. This isn't like a fairy tale.
Dear Trey,
The only reason I'm writing this here is because I know you'll never read this. I have mad feelings for you and I can't express it because there's so many complications in my life. You say that I act like a sister around you and that's true. But the truth is I really really like you and I might be falling in love. I act weird because I don't want my feelings revealed and my heart broken. I really do like you and I hope we stay friends forever.
Ummmm... Here is a letter that I wish I could give, but I have not guts to do that, and people would make fun of me for it.
Sam, if you are out there, I like you a lot, and I think we would make a good couple. We can talk easily, you are fun and romantic, I'm not afraid to share your drink with you, and we work well together. If you ever read this, I think we would make a cute, and good couple. You should ask me out if you feel the same way, because I'm not brave enough. And we're cute because we play percussion together and we could hold hands in the hall.
<3 Cassandra
You are my shining light, like stars in the sky. My feelings for you get stronger every day and I just don't know why. People tell me I love you, and I know why. Dee, I love you and I just want you to know. I am the girl of your dreams as you for me. Hopefully we never separate because we were meant to be together. I love you Dee, and I know you love me too.
The first time I saw you I knew you were the one.
The first time you touched my hand I thought I was going to explode of the happiness. The first time you kissed me I thought we will be together for ever. But I guess it didn't work out and now I have to let go of you and I feel so bad for hurting you so much.
I feel so mad at myself I feel like calling you back!!!
Remember that night, the homecoming dance? You told me you really liked me. I was kind of surprised. I liked you too, but your feelings for me seemed so much stronger than whatever I had for you. So I tried to make it work, and it did for a while. A year passed, and we had kind of gone nowhere. But a few months ago, I got this strange feeling - maybe love, I wouldn't know. You were wearing your brown jacket and your hair was back lit, and you looked beautiful. You were talking to Darcy, so I didn't say anything. Maybe I should have. The moment passed, and off to algebra I went.
I wish I was making this up - then I wouldn't be sounding like a really lame movie script. But that's the way it was. I guess things changed, maybe I did something I shouldn't have, maybe I didn't do something I should have. I don't know. I don't blame you, you did the best you could with some lame guy with long hair. I just want you to know I'm really sorry that this didn't work, and I hope you find someone better.
Alex
Hey Jack,
You are so great to talk to on the subway and you are really cute. I don't care what Ava says about you (yeah she said some not nice things) because you are obviously smarter than her (no duh)and you and I would make a killer Reach team!
Dear Keshaun,
I love u, even though you don`t know who I am but I will always!!! Yay!!
Love,
Your future wife
Dear ____,
You might be a year older then I am, and I might admire you from afar, but I think it's meant to be. I seem not to know what to say around you, you make my heart flutter when you are around. I wish I could tell you how I really feel, but for me it takes time,
Your admirer,
___________
Love is what you got me into
You thrust your arms on my friend's arms
My heart got broken
Tears were streaming down my cheeks
I felt as if I want to die
I know we were never together but it seemed like we were
At first I thought you were playing me
But for some odd reason I didn't think so anymore
When I realized you just wanted to get to my friend
I though we were lightning, as its unique power
Walking to meet you, your hands went against my friends' chest
I dropped a sad face
You smiled that warm smile you gave to me
My heart ached as I walked to the Girl's bathroom
I could feel the hot tears running down my red cheeks
A soul was broken
Bit my lip and started to cry
Taking off my winter jacket that you gave to me
I took the Roses that you also gave to me in the garbage can
I knew this love was fake
But why would you hurt me this way?
You truly showed me what love was
It was actually not real
Well, I feel like screaming out a long 'whooooooooooo' after reading all these love letters... So many lovers have let their hearts out.
I wish all of them a successful love life...
With lots and lots and lots and lots of love,
kukkurru
Dear Chris,
I really like you, I always will. You turned me down. It broke my heart but now you are my boyfriend! I'm as happy as can be. I love you so and I will never let you go!!!
Love forever
Dear...well, you know who you are.
I REALLY like you!
I don't know if I love you, but I have really strong feelings for you.
I like EVERYTHING about you. Your hair, your eyes, your smile, your personality!
I REALLY like you!
- Angely
I wish that I could speak up to you
I wish that I could talk to you
I wish that I won't stutter
I wish that I could know if you liked me
I wish that I could ask you out
I wish that you were my boyfriend
I wish that my heart didn't ache anymore just thinking of you
I wish that I could do a love spell on you
I wish that I could feel your hot breath on me again when we sit next together
I wish that you would ask me out
I wish that this isn't our last year together in fifth grade
I wish that you and I would be in the same middle school and classes
Oh how I wish you could be mine
Logan, I wish all of these things
My name is Poochie and I am in love with this boy named Mook. He is my heart. I love this boy. I hope will be together forever. If he breaks my heart I will drop down and cry.
Dear Secret Admirer, you know who I am. I've seen you before. Ever time I see you I run out the doors. Except for that time I saw you somewhere I stayed at that place for a long period of time. You said you liked me. I thought you were ok [hotttt]. I didn't want to tell you because I too scared. But you weren't. I still like you too. But when I was at that one place I remember playing with this boy and every time he would look back at you. But I I don't like him - the only one is you!!!
Dear Mango,
You may not be my boyfriend now but you were my first love and I can't forget you. I knew we wouldn't be together forever because we are army brats but I was stupid to break up with you. You gave me my first kiss and even though I won't admit it to anyone, I was so nervous. Every time I go into the library I think of the first time I kissed you on the cheek. You probably love your new girlfriend and she probably loves you too but I don't think she could ever in her entire life love you as much as I do and forever will. Please forgive me for breaking your heart but every time I see you with your new girlfriend my heart breaks over and over again. We started off as friends and our relationship grew and then it shrunk and now we are at the beginning again. Take care Mango. I love you! Just to let you know when you leave in December on your last day at school, I'm going to kiss you one last and final time and it's going to be a kiss that we both will never forget!
Love, Mexico/Spain
Dear Sam,
I like you very much! But I know I'm never going to have a chance with you. I would like to at least talk but you're a cool guy and I feel that I'm a nobody and a weirdo.
Love,*****
That day that the teacher switched seats
I sat right next to you
I said I didn't like you
Was because I didn't have feelings for you then
Then, weeks passed and you showed me how I truly felt
I was going to ask you out but I was scared
I was explaining to you how my friend got a love letter from a guy
I told you that the paper said, "Do you want to go out?"
I told you that and you looked at me funny
You looked at me like you wanted to say no
I quickly saved it and said on the paper it says that
He said yeah okay
But I felt broken hearted when you didn't like me
But it feels like you did
That day, remember it?
It was a day of sadness
Dear Boy,
I like you a lot and I hope you like me. There is something nice about you. You are smart, funny,and mischievous. That part scares me if we go out.
Dear Damian, you are the cutest guy in class. I like you. Who do you like? I hope it is me.
Dear Doshon,
I really like you but you already have a girlfriend so I guess we could still be friends. Life is not a fairytale.
I have had a crush on you for a long time and I just wanted to tell you so we could go out on a date.
I have a crush on you, James, and I would like it if we could go out, and me and you would make a cute couple. James and Jelly for life.
Dear my Hero
It's strange, I admit, and an anomaly
Of how much you really matter to me
How your smile can truly light up my day
The sadness I feel when you walk away
I felt like taking the easy way out
Just going, leaving, along with my doubt
Then I met you and I felt my heart
Beating a sweet rhythm of feelings start
I love you, I wanted you to know
But when I told you, you told me "No"
It hurt me, it tore me, it made me cry
Why did we meet, and laugh, and say goodbye?
It's okay with me, as long as you
Are here, with me, and happy too
"Are you okay?" you always ask
As long as I'm with you, I'll say "Yes".
-I
Ello my dearest kinz, my hated enemy.
I never intended to like you.
Nor did I want to.
Nor did I expect that you liked me too.
I never expected to dance with you.
Nor to be so close to going out.
After all that I didn't expect for you to mess it all up, letting her back in.
Claiming you were caught in between, being pulled in two ways.
You were mine.
Then you wanted me to share.
After all this, you still want to be together?
I absolutely hate the fact that it sounds good to me.
I've made many mistakes before but I think this is one of the biggest I've made. You loved me... I loved you I couldn't stop thinking about you, you were all I thought about, dreamed about, dreamed about and all I loved. We had everything going for us, we were the perfect couple. But I blew it, and now I'm lost I wasn't thinking about the good things, like the love we had for each other. I was thinking about myself and how I felt. I didn't stop to think that there are two of us in this relationship. I had everything now, I have nothing. I just wanted to have fun and someone I could see but now I know that having you was all the fun I needed. Yeah, we didn't see each other but we would've when the time was right. I just want to let you know "I love you."
...x... Dear Cameron, will you go out with me?...x...
-----,
I've known you forever. I don't know why we aren't together yet. I think we're both too scared. My friend says we have movie star moments! Long walks on the bech with you kill me. I feel like I'm in a dream but when the waves hit my feet I know I'm awake. I love and I always will.
Always yours,
rainy day
Dear Jack,
When I found out that you were with Alexis my heart broke. You don't know how I feel about you but sometimes I see you look at me differently. Like you care. I wish you knew just how I felt, how sad and hurt I was. I even got a fever because you said yes to her. I like you because of your personality not just because you are cute.
Dear You Know Who,
I just wanted to let you know that I really like you.
A lot. I feel like you feel the same, but I'm not too sure because you're such a great actor. I like you so much that I allow you to control my emotions, and my thoughts and feelings. It's so amazing because I've never felt this way before. You're the first guy to actually cause me to have butterflies in my stomach, that's how I know that I really like you! And I feel like I need you, your touch.
I love you, Dude!
:]
- That One Girl!
Taylor, I am your best friend and I'm starting to like you but I don't know how to tell you I hope you like me.
From Kelsey
I love you more than Hot Puffs (that's hot Cheetos puffs) and you are sweeter than heart chocolate.
S (that's sincerely),
Your S. (Secret) Admirer
You are the most handsome boy I know (well, that I like). You're kind and nice. You are considerate and funny. I wish you were my boyfriend, but it might mess up our relationship. I wouldn't want to mess it up for nothing in the world. I don't know if I love you but I do know I have deep feelings for you. Devonte you make me feel so nervous when I am around you but then you talk to me and everything feels right and in order. You are the kind of person that I could fall deeply in love with and that's a beautiful thing. But like I said, we could never be and plus, you might not like me in the same way but I am always here for you and I will care for you always.
Devonte's Crush,
Brittani
