Walking Home
Gaslight,
from Miller's Pond.
I take the shortcut home,
bridging the gap between your heart
and mine.
Only the Sea Knows
Your name,
inscribed in sand.
My last declaration,
to be washed away when the tide
rolls in.
Faded Memories
Letters,
carefully tied
with lavender ribbon.
Faded words from a man who once
loved me.
