Day 276

I sent you a letter today
written with your favorite pen
you'll have to excuse the smudges
you know I write with my left hand

I folded the page in thirds and
scrawled your name across the top
I tried not to make it sappy
but once I began I could not stop

I placed it in a bottle and
pushed the cork on tight and
I walked down to the beach
in the middle of the night

I watched it float in the water
before the waves took it away
here's hoping someone out there
will read the words I had to say
