Hey. It’s been a while since we last saw each other.

No, not you, reader.

You. The person not reading this.

I’m sorry that you aren’t.

I was excited to write; part of me wants
to believe you were excited to read.

Neither of us got the opportunity.

Until now.

Though you aren’t reading this,
and may never,

I will write.

I cannot draw. I cannot sing.
I cannot dance. So

I will write.

If pictures are worth a thousand words,

I will write you a million.
