THE POSTMAN /
by Lev Blazko /
~~~ /
I am a postman /
carrying mail /
to unknown locations /
and to none I deliver /
Piles of letters /
written with blood /
written with sweat /
written with tears /
Some are like lightning /
scribbled in rage /
others are blurred /
from crying eyes /
Some are scented /
with sweet memories /
others unopened /
sealed with pain /
One reads "Help!" /
another says "Sorry..." /
a third reads "Thank you." /
a fourth says "Why?" /
Heavy is my burden /
with no hope for relief /
and heavier it grows /
with no sight of an end /
Truth to be told /
life gave me this quest /
of carrying letters /
that all are my own... /
