hello dear knight
it has been too long
i scooped my tears
and carefully placed every drop in a pot
each night i cut and piece your words together
hoping to create a collage of endearment
but to my dismay
i sculpted an image of longing and even sadder grieving
at dawn i send kisses of passion
and letters aching of desire
passed from one star to another
only to be abruptly halted by a careless moon
did you hear my stars howling in despair?
as that crescent moon ripped my gifts apart
shoved them back into the cold desert dune
such a sad affair
rippled on thetwenty-third, ended on a new year
such a sad, bitter affair
