Where Went the Love Letters?

Where went the love letters?

Where went the love letters
Where went the old-school romantics
Where went the love for words in love

Could you ever tell?

The first ever love letter
The nervous veins shuddering the brittle daydreams and the hesitant desires
The first ever wry smile at the length of the crooked innocent lips

Could you ever forget?

Love changed faces as letters knocked newer addresses and unfamiliar habits
Some sailed the puddles, some flew the skies; paper boats and paper planes weren’t nostalgia back then
But the wait, the wait for the letters always felt the same; pacing heart rates and cold sweat galloping down the spine

Could you live it all, one last time and one more?

Where went the love letters
Where went the poets scattering words like rainbows across overcast skies
Where went the romantics and their ballads that smelt like petrichor

Could you rewrite it all, for the sake of it?

Where went the love letters?
Could you ever tell?
