The letter I left on your door
Suzy Park
Before you leave along this road of no return, Of no goodbyes or hellos or any of the kind, Before the blanket you liked becomes cold and abandoned, Read the letter I left on your door.
When hearts beat you in and out, And you feel as if you’ re stuck, When the love you held becomes cereal crumbs on the table, You’ ll want to cross the river, just like everyone else, But read the letter I left on your door.
Once, I asked where you want to go, You just smiled and said“ home”. I’ ve put the keys inside the envelope, And that blue paper you always liked.
A thousand pleas and a thousand“ if” s Your phone is even turned off. But before the journey, before the depart, The letter still awaits, inside your flat, So read the letter I left on the door.
It may just change your mind.
