Sonnet #92

When the snow falls,

I’ll write you a letter.

When the party stalls,

it’ll remind you of when things were better.

There will be a Hendrix quote,

and I’ll draw a sun in the top left hand corner.

I’ll allude to the time when we danced next to that moat,

and got our picture taken by that foreigner.

I’ll tuck that picture in the envelope,

maybe you’ll look at it and it’ll make you smile.

Like I do when I think about how you taught me to use a microscope,

and when we started copying each others style.

If this letter reaches you, please, reply.

So that I can be aware that you exist. I’ll be waiting for you in the sky.
