Dear John,
Let me just say upfront, I have never seen someone As Cold As You. How could you just come and take my heart like that and then just go away as nothing happened? I gave you all my love, I handed you all of I am and what did you do? You trampled everything under your feet and all I could say is just... Oh My My My!
Whenever I hear Our Song playing on the radio when I am on The Outside, I always end up with a tear in my eyes and I am cursing that name that I have known too well. I could never forget how I sat on that curbside and pulled out my wallet and took your picture out. After all that is said and done, you really are just another Picture to Burn.
From the moment we met, you took my hand and showed me the world. You showed me that even a lonely and not so special girl like me has A Place in this World. Oh boy, have I known that you are such a coward and a good for nothing lad. With all the knowledge and heartaches I know now, I wish that I Should've Said No, and maybe, just maybe, I would have been able to Stay Beautiful, innocent, pure, and serene.
As I lie here on this lonely bed of mine and sing songs of my aching heart. I wipe all these Teardrops on My Guitar and I travel back in time when we were happy together and we're like Tied Together with a Smile. I just miss those times and I am not quite sure whether to be happy, sad, glad, or relieved.
The snow outside falls heavily while Tim McGraw is singing another country song over the radio. The coldness of the December air engulfed me while I was thinking that everything must make sense in the end, that everything has a deeper meaning and that Christmas must be Something More, more than presents, holiday cheers, and more than all the cookies and food. Just like all those Christmases When You Were Mine, they were all memorable, meaningful, and just invaluable parts of our history.
You know what? The other day I decided to go around the town to see the lights and the decorations thinking that they would somehow lift my spirits up and maybe put a smile on my lonesome face. But all I could see from all the directions are lovers and couples that are walking hand in hand and they seemed to be over the moon with the holiday spirit. And there I was walking past all of the festivities and I have never felt so Invisible before.
When I met you, you showed me how beautiful the world can be and you let me see how great I could become. You were there when I was down, you were there when I was gleefully glad and you were there all the time that I was used to you being always there for me. Since then, I have always felt that I'm Only Me When I'm With You for you were able to bring out the best in me, no matter how hidden I think the good parts of me were.
I guess what I was trying to say throughout this letter is just that I have something in my mind that I wished to asked you. It's a question that my heart is begging for an answer all along. Try hard as I may, I couldn't find the answer to my inquiry, not even a remote idea or a clue. I am not even asking for an explanation why your idea of a perfect Christmas is getting my best friend pregnant. I just want you to answer this, why do you have to go and break A Perfectly Good Heart? Why?
Regretfully Yours,
Alison
Hey Stephen!
What a sad and heartbreaking love letter. Can you imagine celebrating Christmas while your loved one is in the house of your best friend tending to her because she was pregnant with their child that was conceived from deceit and betrayal?
If you are wondering what's up with all those BOLD phrases that were emphasized in the article above then you probably don't know that they are songs from Taylor Swift from the year 2006 through 2007 arranged chronologically. And yep, you guessed it right, I just love to make this article since I have enjoyed stitching lines that would go well with the title of the songs. And boy, I never thought that it was just so easy because as all the Swifties know, every album or every era of hers has a specific and a particular theme.
The original plan was to write something that would just envelope all the eras and all the songs that she had ever made but when I checked her discography, I was surprised at how many songs she has already written and performed. There are just too many songs to include. If I had chosen to go that way, I will not be finished writing for two straight days, maybe more. And with that, I had just opted to write the first 2 years of her professional career. If you haven't heard these songs yet, well of course I recommend all of them. Try to listen to them to hear a much cutesy, innocent, and a younger Miss Swift.
I hope that you like this one even half of how much I loved writing it. Anyway, I appreciate the time that you spent here, and as always, a toast to us and our friendship...
Cheers!!!
Wow! This sounds fun! Thank you for this idea!
