"A LETTER TO H.D."

July 2, 2018.

hello H.D.


 
thank you for finding me in 
the middle of my existence. 
you know where I came from. 
it usually hurt to look back 
but telling you about every 
detail my life was made up of 
took away that pain. most 
never get it, they call it 
life and that’s an insult. my 
books always had the answers 
I needed but with you, my 
books just took up space. you 
gave my eye color a brighter 
shade and made my voice 
beautifully decorated. as a 
kid I gathered my chains, as 
an old man, you took them off 
one by one. if I told anyone 
that, they'd just look at me. 
I've always been something 
nobody wants and lays off 
when there is no more work to 
do in that relationship. if 
people could just figure out 
that there is a start to 


happiness, they'd understand 
it's after the rain. I put in 
35 years and now, I don't 
know what to do. the path we 
walked pulled me out of that 
place I lived in for so long 
and it's given me a joy. I 
write and live from an old 
mind and an old beaten body. 
I found this late in life but 
better late than never. I owe 
it to myself to see it 
through. I have this feeling 
inside of me that says, it'll 
show, it'll show, it'll show. 
oh how I've come through the 
murder of myself and figured 
out the best way to die. to 
realize you can love without 
fear, many never accomplish. 
I have you to thank for that 
and I look forward to your 
return so you can see what 
you’ve given me. don't forget 
to remember to remember me.


your man;

E.
