getting there

I
run
catch the 91
sit. read brontë.

yonge/finch
take the subway
south to bloor
sit. read, but really daydream about him.

bloor/yonge
eastbound
sit. forget to read. count the minutes till

waiting for the 12
kingston road next stop
book in backpack. his lips greet mine

everything missing
is whole again

Best poem ever. What a zinger at the end. I love it!

Love your apparent muse,

Interesting enough, I debated including the ending! However, in the end (pun? Ha-ha), I decided to just spill the beans and be truthful… so I included it in my final draft.

Much thanks baby!

And yes. You are the best muse. EVER.

Happily yours,
Melissa
