She wrote me a letter today, came in the post, it’s been such along time since she passed through this way, I spent the day wondering if I should open it, just to find out for sure, I was peeling back the envelope when I heard the knock upon the front door, I left the letter on the table, walked down the empty hall, passed by photographs of her face, the memories of loves, lives and other times that I recall, then I unlatched the moment, heart thumping in my chest, left my darkness and stepped outside, and there she was, standing, smiling in forgotten question marks, I held her close, closer still, forgot to remember why she left me, smelled her hair, her perfume, stared long in her eyes, whispered sorry to the past, the pain, the anger, the farewells and goodbyes,
Unopened, the letter lies upon the table, so long since you left this place, since you went away, I’m coming back home again, calling your name, wishing for yesterday…
