The Headline Screams News of Their Love

The headline
Screams the news
Of her love letter to her
The one she wrote
In blue,
To cover
The red of her heart.
The headline
Screams the news
Of her love letter to her;
Where they made promises
Of a forever never to come.
The headline
Screams the news,
Of her love letter to her
Where words bared their souls;
While clothed in desire.
The headline
Screams the news
Of her love letter to her
The one that screams of their love;
Yet is silenced with whispers.
The headline
Screams the news
Of her love letter to her.
The one that will always be white
Like the sheets on their face.
The headline
Screams the news;
Yet does not ask
Why
Everyone else’s love letter
Becomes a story
But theirs
A headline?
