a reply

The letter came. Wrapped in mourning and bureaucracy.
I reached out across time to grab at it.
And inside found happiness and family. None of it mine.
I cried through her cheerily written words and wished for a happy ending.
But it was long ago buried in a hole in a ground.
Too late, the letter came. Four years too late.
