Love Letters

By now you have had a glass of wine,

it’s hard to image your love letters

no one actually writes anymore.

We stare at our phones,

misinterpreting text messages

trying to use fastest shortcut to express

what it is we feel.

Sometimes when you call

you can sneak away in private,

not letting anyone know

you’re stuck with these feelings.

Love is hidden in different ways,

stay quiet and keep to the line

when you should actually scream in rage.

Own the passion that is pounding

explore the pulse in your throat.

Evidently you do have feelings,

it’s important to share

your thoughtful letters with others.

Become a poet and practice

your own distinctive form.

Share your devoted worldly blog

count your longings, seductively.

Undress the naked truth in a mirror

and then slowly draw on that experience.

Until finally, you’re ready

to hand over your love drawn letters

to your one and famous lover.
