Dear B,

I know it has been a long, long time.  I don't know why but I just stopped writing. Until recently I started just a bit. So, sharing snippets of it here.

A silent tear escapes

Staring at the black ahead

My heart echoes the waves

Laying on the sand beneath

I trace mindlessly with a finger

Counting the stars, smiling at the moon

I feel something on my hand

I see it's a tiny crab

It has come to share the silence

My partner in the dark

I take a deep breath

Calm myself down

I will always have this sliver of peace

Amidst this crazy world.

Love,

N
