Another Rain Soaked Letter

Another rain soaked letter
Delivered to the woman in black boots...
The much awaited package.
Eager hands tear the envelope
Parchment is hastily unfolded.
More than a letter
A statement of love meets her eyes.
Ink is soaked by salty tears...
Emotion poured through a pen.
From the text,
She hears his voice.
Through the words,
She feels his breath...
Pressed against her ear,
He is with her again.
She pulls the letter to her chest
Sobbing deep...
Another rain soaked letter
And the distance melts.
Another tear soaked parchment,
And somehow she knows...
Everything is going to be okay....
