Slowly, her fingers run
under the seal of a yellowed
envelop as if brushing against
his lips as he kissed it shut.
He delicately penned gentle
words, but a thousand
letters aren’t sufficient to prove his
devotion – A thousand miles not
enough to keep them apart. Once
only bound by infatuation and perpetual
poor timing, doomed to perish with
nothing but memories of a midnight
cursing the ticking second hand,
memorizing each embrace. She
refuses to buy into fate, but her’s is
sealed like the envelop in her hands.
Studying each word, running her
fingers over dried ink as if brushing
against his determined hand as he wrote.
