To you, an unsent letter
(the part to someone else)
My cards came today, and I wanted to thank you.
I'll be holding on to the playing cards, but giving away the Tarot cards.
(the part to us both)
I wanted to thank you, and let you know why I'm crying my eyes out. I'm grieving, but not in the literalest sense. I haven't lost anyone or anything yet. I'm grieving what I'm... well, failing to let go.
Friends, family, parts of myself.
And I'm going to use your playing cards to help me do that.
(The part to me)
Oh gods, she hasn't seen how terrible my bridge is and I'm going to destroy her poor cards. I'm grieving how awful those cards are gonna look next week, even.
