Dear Katherine

Dear Katherine

Dear Katherine

You've haven't been dead long; I just got the news.

I'm speechless I don't really know what to think.

My thoughts are blocked by a thousand guards.

How am I now though? Not so good.

My body is just shaking rapidly.

The chills run down my spine, while sweat drenches my face.

Just like the moment when I first met you.

Remember I was about 9, not old enough to mature.

Yet when you walked into court,

My knees just weakened and then it happened.

I fell right to the floor.

Yet you didn't laugh, like I expected you to do.

You just let out a hand and helped me up.

Telling me to be careful in your native language

That's when I knew; I was in love with you.

Dear Katherine

What happened to us?

I wanted to be yours for so long

And I didn't cherish it like I was supposed to

You were always there for me to make me smile

Cheering for me on the sidelines at my jousting matches

Standing so proudly when you tied your scarf around my Jousting stick

You took such good care of me.

Yet I stepped on you, better yet trampled you

I was very unfaithful to you when I promised to only bed you

When I'd bed you it was because I felt like an ungrateful bastard

I deserved for you to torture me like a slave.

It was all because, I wanted a son.

Without thinking about our beautiful daughter Mary

Oh dear sweet Mary she probably hates me now!

I deserve all the feelings of hatred towards me.

Dear Katherine,

Anne's probably ecstatic that you're gone.

I know it's just rude I wish she'd shown respect

Yet for some reason I'm caught under her spell.

From the moment I met her, I was captured.

Shackled in the Tower of London while she tortured me

Torturing me with her seduction

I was forced to let you go

I finally agreed causing a whole mess in England.

God, I wish I could take it back.

I wish I can go back in time

And just start over

To tell you the truth Katherine,

You are 1000 times greater than Anne

Dear Katherine,

Was the moment you died peaceful at least?

Was there any pain at all?

Were there people you loved surrounding you?

Mary and I were on your mind for sure.

You cared for us so much Katherine

We should have been there

Holding your hand as your hand as your body shut down

I'm sorry for everything

For the pain I caused you.

The tears are slowly rushing down my eyes now.

Thinking about how much I hurt you

Even if I apologize 1000000 times more

I hope you forgive me.

Dear Katherine,

What I'm really trying to say is,

That deep in my heartless soul

I still love you
