My Undying Love to Taylor Swift

“Chronological”
Taylor Swift is one of the people I am grateful to have known, as well as a very significant person who
happens to exist in the universe. I'm grateful and beyond appreciative for her wonderful personality. She
has been both an inspiration and a motivator for me. She is the one I chose out of all the people on this
planet. I used to despise her, just as the rest of the world did. But, back then, I was familiar with one of her
songs, "Love Story." I used to hear it on MTV, radios, the internet, and everywhere else. You could even
hear folks singing that tune wherever I went. But, of course, I don't blame them; it's a fantastic song and a
global phenomenon that will not be forgotten. She is and will always be a queen, regardless of her age.

Aside from God, my family, and my friends, Taylor Swift was one of the individuals who helped me get
back on track in my life. I mean, I could simply listen to her music and feel better. When I'm having a
terrible day, I just listen to her and my mood improves. I used to despise her and seldom listened to her
songs, but when I heard "Blank Space" in 2015, I said to myself, "this is such a beautiful song," "this is
important and has a great message." And I thought to myself, "Maybe this isn't simply one of the excellent
songs." Then I tried listening to the album "1989," and all of the tracks were excellent. The rest is history,
and I've subsequently listened to all of her albums. One day, I became intrigued by her and decided to
learn more about her. I was astounded to learn that I had misjudged her and that she just wants people to
listen to her songs and sing along with her. She was depicted as a nasty person in the media. She became a
moneymaker for the media because having Taylor in the news would benefit them greatly and earn them a
lot of money. The media fabricated her kind and caring nature toward others by highlighting only the
occasions she faltered. If I were in her situation, I would feel... "hurtful," knowing that the media
fabricates your actual nature, motives, and intentions. Since then, I've grown to adore her and have been
there for her every step of the way.

Every step of the journey, her songs have a profound effect on me. It's almost as if I and Taylor are linked
in some way. Because when she releases her music, it's as though she knows exactly how I'm feeling at
the time as if those songs were made especially for me. Aside from that, she is faithful to herself, and
despite bad occurrences in the past, she has remained the same from the beginning of her career till today.
She dismantled all the boundaries and proven to everyone that they were incorrect, that she is a smart and
talented young woman. And I saw that battling energy she possessed that I lacked.

I had her when I needed her; she stayed and assisted me throughout my life, even though she didn't know
who I was. I'm not complete without Taylor, and I've even wondered if I can live without her these days.
It's as if she's already a part of my existence that I can't let go of. So if she has a difficulty, she has me and
every swiftie when she needs us, and we will be by her side. I adore Taylor Swift and am overjoyed that
she exists. I hope that before she retires, at the very least, I get to see her perform and maybe even meet
her. And... If that happens, I'll send her this letter to read about how much I adore her.
