Whispered letters

by Christine Rickman - Cancer

My dearest love,
these are the words
I cannot write:

I missed you,
Had my dream shattered
One moment
I stood looking down
On a perfect world
The next
I sit in the car
Crying because
My memory isn't that good
The sign said
6:30,
This I swear is true..
But because of it
I couldn't be with you
I had spent
Three days 
Pondering something
That has been there a long time
I waited eight days and
Six long hours
Looking forward to
The one thing I wanted
And that one thing was you
I let them,
Do what they did before
Tell me it would all be ok,
Let them get my hope up,
And then
With a mere difference
Of three hours
My hope was shattered.
Darling I'm sorry
I hope  that soon
You will call me up,
Cause it was my fault,
Hon, I lost your number too.
Please be there,
Waiting for the moment
You can be free
Cause I am waiting
And these are the words
I wish to say
To your loving face,
Or to your voice,
On the other end of the line.
 Amantes sunt Amentes.
Semper Fidelis,
Christine Rickman.

Reason for writing:

    Well guess what, I was off by three hours.
