> Found your letter today.
> Unsaid words flood back,
> smiles forgotten, unsure again
> if the right choices were.

> Love is no highway
> doubt keeping us in petrol stations
> places mapped unexplored -
> arrogant you'll take me
> in the wrong direction
> even if it's the way I'd have gone myself.
>
> Cruelty comes in small doses,
> unforgiving in the sunlight,
> me leaving bombs in shiny packages as
> shadows grow your face to retirement.
>
> Moments left in envelopes fading, my name
> you scrawled on the front disappearing
> like the morning you left for the last time.
