3 Words and 3 Crosses

I stumbled through, the kitchen door,
To find ink, splattered all over the floor,
On the counter, lay a flat, white object,
I went in closer, to go and inspect,

It was in fact, a letter to me,
My eyes went blurry; it was hard to see,
The tears streamed silently, dripped on the floor,
My mind and body, couldn’t take much more,

I opened up and looked inside,
I fell to me knees, just sat and cried,
Through all of these years, and all of my losses,
Someone had written, 3 words and 3 crosses
