Day 5 Assignment: Be Brief

She said, “I’m sorry”,

An awful lot of times.

Then tried to say, “Goodbye”,

It took a while.

 

But still she wrote it,

Her letter,

Long and raw, and wretched.

 

How I came across it,

I’ll never know –-

 

She might have dropped it in a flurry,

Or could have thrown it away;

I could not say.

 

So I left it there, by the lonely bench,

Where I found it,

For the passing wind to carry,

Or so it could make another stranger’s heart weary.

 

She said, “I’m sorry”;

Why, she loved him so well.
