"The Letter"

"The Letter"

by:

Virgilio F. De leon Jr.MD 


I

A small pile had gathered by my feet

Crumpled paper with your name on them

I had started and stopped saying

Words that I might letter be condemned


II

To say these things to you

Felt like committing a crime

It had taken me all this night

To think express what was in my mind


III

Yet there are words and thoughts

And I felt the paper would not except them

So I crumple each and everyone

Still not able to finish this letter.
