Dear -

• Artist: charbookwyrm
• Description: You know that strange feeling? The one where the person you love is so far away? That's what this is.
  And, also, it concerns the way we write, how we portray ourselves, the editing that mentally occurs every time a pen sets itself to paper.

(I dare not write your name,
For fear of flood,
Torrential rain.)

Baby…
Darling…
My love…

My Love,

My Love,
We did not take the pictures
As we meant to.
We said we needed some nice ones
Of just us two.
Together.
I suppose –
(What do I?)
I suppose that we were caught up.
Caught up in that rare time together,
And forgot that we needed more evidence to take back
(That I needed to take back, to my second home)
Than we already possess.

I…
I’ve missed you at night.
(Thank god the fridge has a tendency to snore,
Or I’d miss you even more.)
I try to find warmth in the empty air,
A shoulder, gentle curve of an arm,
The brief press of lips on my hair.
But I cannot succeed.
For once, imagination fails me
And I am strangely alone
Amidst the discordant (but, now, familiar) lullabies of this city.

(Entirely) Yours,

(Dare I sign my name?
The returning fear,
Of the silent rain.)

[xXpuking-rainbowsXx]

it is so good i really felt what you where saying

[Monokuro No Yume]

It's really good.
I can't help but feel that it's missing something though. =/ Maybe it doesn't have a very clear 'ending'? I can't quite tell. Dx
And I'm crazy, so listening to me might not be all that smart.
5/5, One of the best I've seen on here.
