The Life of a Dear John Letter

bone bleached fibers burdened with messages
of goodbyes too cruel for fear-strained throats
traverse o'er bottomless waters on boats
to reveal late-night tear-stained passages
dropped conspicuously when tide recedes
an omen unspoken whose life precedes
frantic eyes scanning and an ear that itches
