I hope this note never finds its way
Back to the person it concerned
For I care not for your whereabouts
Nor understand what’s in your mind
But sometimes when I’m on a hill
The wind stirs up a breeze just right
I hear the rumbling of the engines
The blaring of sirens in your head
Resonating within that metal bird
My skull pressed against the window
Prodding the frail limen of sleep
You keep returning in my dreams
Me standing alone in the downpour
Clinging onto a torn bag of clothes
I’ve outgrown since I’ve borne
The burden of having known you
