the letters we write and don't send. i've placed them carefully into a cardboard box. they hold strong at the deepest part of the ocean with the anchors of sunken shipwrecks. at these depths the blue body herself does not move an eighth. confusion surfaces occasionally with an old habit. it snowed in my bedroom. it was the type of snowfall where the flakes replace the skyline, and come to rest on shoulders, and faces. snow doesn't find their chests because half their organs are against each other, covering each other, breathing for each another. mother nature cries and the clouds cover a city with a weightless white blanket. all this while they sleep.

i have "letters i won't send" in my interests list. i always have more to say in the ones i don't/won't send. but i don't always know if i'm going to send them or not.
these letters; they hide in books, some in envelopes while becoming forgotten memories. i like hearing that there are still a few who write letters. even more so, one's they don't/won't send.
i, too, hide letters in books and have to shake the leaves before lending them to friends.
i write them under willow trees in fall. and by windows in winter. i often wonder if summer ever writes.
maybe this summer the secret will be lost.
perhaps after the snow melts, but only after the canal thaws.
