Ashes

I wrote you a letter,
hand wrote it I mean.
I told you everything
in my heart, on my mind
all my hurt feelings
all my fears about the future
all the good and bad about us
I told you I believed that
I was right about not meeting
in the beginning and I wished
I had stood by my own feelings
I took my bitterness
and my love for you
and my memories both
cherished and detested
I took all of it
and I wrote it all down.
And now I will burn it
with the moon standing guard
And then I will gather
the ashes and bury them
at the foot of my tree, along
with my dreams of love.
