More Half Open Letters by Nicole AssenzaI picture you at the receiving end
Youre standing there, waiting
I haven't seen you in a while
Silence crackles happily like tinsel
But its a decoration of awkwardness
Theres a need to say
Something more
But like peanut butter it sticks
To the roof of my mouth
And when it fails
Theres always your letters
Half open
And mine
Half written
To remind me
Im always on the receiving end
