A LETTER TO TESORO MIO ROLLER GIRL

A LETTER TO TESORO MIO ROLLER GIRL

I’m crying out for help, but no one answers
Sometimes the loudest cries are the ones never heard
Is this how you want to remember us?

It never made sense
As you said to me “I need to reflect on things”
I replay your words over and over each day
I still can’t make sense of it

I took pen to paper and wrote you a letter
But I’ll never mail it
Too afraid of what you wouldn’t say
And the stains from my tears have smudged "I love you"

This is the dark that follows your departure
I’m locked in a cage and only you hold the key
I’m banging on the bars, but you don’t answer

I’m crying out for you, but you don’t hear me
These tears fallen have rusted my metal heart
Is this what you wanted for me?

It never made sense
As you said to me “I’m truly sorry”
I replay our life over and over each day
I still can’t make sense of it
