Messy Cursive and Truth (Continuation of Charles Simic's Poem)

"The mail truck goes down the coast
Carrying a single letter"
Down the calm street it rolls
Not a breath of breeze blows
Inside the letter lies the key to a heart
Words poured onto a single page
Words of love
Folded into a little white envelope
And sealed up with a stamp
Inside,
Are the all the words he was too afraid
To tell her in person.
The sky is crystal clear
The sun is shining
The air is warm
It is a special day.
One long letter
Written in messy cursive and truth.
He loves her
