That One Letter -B&W Final #45

79 words, 12 lines
Form: Couplets of eight-syllable lines



The mailbox, plastic and metal,
today it had just one letter

carefully you held it and said
“it’s the same white as my bed

if truth’s wrapped in an envelope
my love will tell me to elope”

but when you tore open the flap
madly you cursed at the old chap

then in blues, you released a sigh
as you could just fall down and die

that monster had left you for good
and took your pal to Hollywood
