This would be a very good counter poem to the love poem you just critiqued for me! =D
I think your formatting really goes well with your poem. letters normally start... "dear Mr/Mrs -----," and addresses the person. You start with the same format, "Why write love letters," and address your topic. In your second stanza you use the word "one" as a noun, I am not sure who or what this is meant to be (maybe this is what you intended).One could mean, facing the rain looking for a love letter? or a person? lover? or maybe a fading ghost? The second half of this poem is my favorite part, but your last line is a little meek.
