A Letter To HeavenA Poem by Jodie NgIf I could send a letter to heaven, I'd fill it with tears and smiles, Tears that reflect the void in my heart, A void that can never be filled. A letter holding a smile to mask all that needs to be veiled. It would, I hope, capture the essence of pain, My hurt and losses too. A letter that holds hope to see a better future, But fears dreams will never come true. An epiphany embracing a broken orchestra. Is forever broken too? Happiness that seems so close, but so far Footsteps in the past fading with rust A rainbow seen through a magnifying glass, But blind to the naked eye. If only I could send a letter to heaven. If i could send a letter to heaven, Patiently, I'd wait for a reply. A reply I know will never come, not in words, not in paper But a reply in feelings, love, comfort. The blessing of my day, the shimmer in grey clouds. A letter to heaven, That's all I need. A letter to you, Is a letter to an angel. If only I could send a letter to heaven. © 2012 Jodie Ng |
