Okay so I missed a few days, I shall make no excuses ha!
But here are poems from the days that I missed
Days 12-14
Arctic Soul
Someone come put your arms
around me
I’m standing in a place so
cold
So cold, ice can form in my
mouth
It’s freezing my soul
My heart can’t pump enough
blood
Through my body to thaw it
out
My heart is so icy right
now
I don’t know if it’ll ever
defrost
My face is red with pain
My ears are bursting from
the cold
My spirit is so passionless
It’s freezing my soul
The Letter
I received a letter today
A letter from my fiancée
Saying that he wasn’t in
love anymore
For six months now I wasn’t
who he’s been caring for
He left to visit his mom
six months ago
It was only supposed to be
for two weeks though
He called everyday
especially the first week
After a month less and less
he called me
I had his mom’s number. I
called every now and then
Same story every time, “he
just stepped out with his friends”
“Could you tell him to call
when he gets home?”
“I’ll give him the message”
then there’s the dial tone
The only ring that came
from him was the one on my hand
I had no answers for his
actions, I couldn’t understand
In that letter that I
received today
The one from my fiancée
It said that most of the
time he was home dodging my calls
He’s not in love, he’s not
coming back, and that’s all

2:00am
Who is calling at this
time?
The caller ID say “private
call”
Somebody must have
something important to say
Calling at 2:00 am and all
There was a deep voice on
the other line
A voice familiar to my ear
Hey, what’s on your mind? I asked
“I just had some words I
wanted you to hear”
I really don’t have much to say
“Okay but I have something
to talk about”
I don’t know if I want to listen
“Please just give me some
time to talk it out”
It’s 2:00 am, this couldn’t have waited?
“I wanted to apologize to
you”
“I didn’t do that when I
wrote you last”
“When I visited my mom, I
ran into someone old but new”
“I got caught up and didn’t
know how to react”
“Old feelings started to
flow into my heart again”
“I couldn’t call so I wrote
the letter instead”
“I didn’t know how to tell
you I wanted the relationship to end”
“I just wanted to apologize
for treating you that way”
“I just want us to try to
get over it”
“I know this may be hard
for you, but…”
Don’t worry I can forgive, even if I don’t forget
