It's been a long time,

staying away;

sitting in silence

...until today.

I'm breaking my rule

reaching again,

following thoughts

by devil men.

Just a few phrases,

maybe two lines;

what's my excuse?

It's Valentine's.

A special letter

for you to know:

we were just friends,

but you're my world.

About the Creator

Alex Torres

Started writing short stories back in 1988 at work, when I had an empty page to fill for the employee's internal magazine. Taking the pen again after a 30 year-long hiatus, exploring where it takes me this time.
