Letter to a Past Love
written by: Robert Allen
Wrapped in your wide wings
I was saved from the rage
of the fire and became an
uncommon man in your eyes:
for that I’ll always find you
gracious and impossible.
I hope you’re well
and that love is sweet for you –
that love’s your delicacy.
Thank you for the time
you gave to me.
