My Love Letter to the English Language
Dear English Language,
I am so in love with you.
My infatuation is cut so deep, built so strong and held together with so many words that
act like glue and connect my thoughts to the outside world.
Without you
life is an inevitable void of ideas left without a right way - or any way to express them.
Without you I am nothing but a shout into a world of nameless thoughts inside of my head.
These thoughts, these words label everything I know, what I see, who I am.
I’m a girl. I am also an adolescent abundant in a love of preaching speech to the whole human race.
I am a Human, but I’m also a living creature who thrives on being alone and wonders why I exist the way I am.
To bad I’ll never see you again because of the modern world's twist on English,
destroying you,
killing everything you were,
and burning every hope for your beauty to shine again.
Yours truly,
The label that wouldn’t exist without you,
Rachel Jones

Ever since I was little, I always had a deep love for the English language. In my house in the drawer by the window in my living room, there lived a dictionary ever since I could remember, and that dictionary fascinated me. It was insane to me that in just one book lived the entire language of our species. So when Mrs. Allan assigned us to write a poem about words that I love, I couldn’t just pick one! But of course I have a few favorites, so I included those, but I wanted to write about the entire language. Therefore who else should I write this poem for! The English language! That was my inspiration behind it, but in order to make this poem a little different, I gave life to the English language, and wrote the poem to it.
