THE GREAT AMERICAN POSTCARD

The words will not come.

The page remains blank.

I keep trying to come up with the words

the things to say to you

the feelings, the emotions

the... the everything

that encapsulates what you need to know

about me, about us

about... oh, I don't know.

If I did this would be so much easier.

I want to compose something perfect

something that gets you to see

what you mean, what I need

what...

what will it take to fill this page

with my essence

so I can send it to you?

What will it take to get through?
