The audacity
that you would write a ***** a love letter
That you would in so many words announce your affections for a **********
Thay you would pour out your heart
to a harlot
But here in hand i have it
written in blood turned tan from time travel
caligraphy cornerstones that mark the foundation for forgiveness
lithography laden with agony for the cause of love
It's as if even now, i can watch your quill
as it traipses across parchment
fabricated from your very own lamb's skin
still marred with scars
rough and red
tears at it's edges
and holes torn by gashes
the audacity of that "I love you"
scrawled in the crucifix cursive of the creator of the earth and its
universe
unfurled to cut the mundanity with meaning
The audacity...
I am wordless.
My soul is far from speechless.
