A Poem to a Letter

This is an ode to you; a letter.

Whether you emerge from ink on paper,
Or as words on a screen. 
You will cease to be a figment.

Never underestimate your power.
For while you look like mere scratchings on a surface,
You are anything but two-dimensional.

The heights you can soar to; 
The depths you can plunge to;
Can surpass anything else man ever made. 

You carry the weight of a soul, 
The desires of a heart,
And the memories of a mind.

Take shape, oh little one.
Allow your writer to find solace in your form.
Your construct alone can give her what she seeks.
