The prompt for Day 16 of NaPoWriMo is to take an inspiration from the act of letter-writing. The poem can be in the form of a letter to a person, place, or thing, or in the form of a back-and-forth correspondence.
A Letter to My Love
Dear love
It’s been a long time
truly a long time that
we shared our hearts
thoughts of your love
loiter in my mind
my mind that had struggled
to snatch all memories
memories of our relationship
memories of our intimacy
memories of our days
away from my heart
away from my life
that day two decades ago
every day for two decades
Your fond memories quietly sneak in
through the porch everyday but
they are placid
they are innocuous
they just find a quiet place
somewhere in my heart to
watch me live on
every day for two decades
You know my dear
your memoirs are my true friends
I can reach out in need
eagerly awaiting
when I need to share
alluring me to past
when present becomes a load
musing with me of a world
that was stripped two decades ago
every day for two decades
O my dear love!
Today I want to gift your way
my reminiscences
for I want my memories
to brace you
to instigate you
to bolster you
as your memories exist for me
as I craved to live for you
two decades ago
every day for two decades
Is this confessional or autobiographical? It make my heart sore…
Oops…neither confession nor autobiography..just fiction..imagination 🙂
