Note to “That Girl”


You have been gone since Valentine’s Day and I have missed you.  I think I have been living in solitude for the whole time since then.  I think that is the correct term.  I have not been edging around the bottomless pits of loneliness.  I have not felt the sharp points of despair probing at me.     
Solitude, I think.
    
I am all framing and no finish without you.
I am a coat without buttons.
My elevator is stuck on the first floor.

Do you remember the night that I planted a single kiss on your bare shoulder?
Can we start at that place again?

    Nice love call. Should work especially if you were to use a big jet plane. :)
