I wrote the letter
every heartbeat
scribed in blue ink
my hand pouring forth
what no one else
would ever know
untethered dreams
we mused of
in naked nights
prayers of every tomorrow
talked out loud on aching skin
forever and afters
screamed in climaxing dances
where we invited each other’s mind
to hold hands
__
I wrote for days and nights
until our unfinished story
had no more to tell
then ripped it to shreds
sending our broken pieces
in a balloon
to where nowhere exists
