one day i woke up and checked my emails
the message was sprawled out line by line
separated by huge gaps
not gasp
but i did anyways
a suitor was taking a pilgrimage
to my home from his
by foot
an 8 hour journey
in the name of love
we exchanged flowers when he arrived
and ate cheese
awkwardly at the kitchen table
when i opened the door to him
his eyes were glowing
he had spent his day with the water and open sky
thank you
for coming for me
I am still trying to accept this extraordinary gesture
