VISUAL PROMPT

Write a story or poem that takes place on this arctic pier.

At the pier waiting for apologies

I let my feet dangle off the edge

My toes barley dipping into the icy blue water

In my head your voice echos

One chant coming above all

I’m sorry

You said it once

Right in this very spot

We got in a fight earlier that day

And I walked away

You found me sitting here

Waiting

Tears slipping from my eyes

My grasp on reality fading

I have never seen your eyes hold so much emotion

Never thought you could make me spiral in this way

Yet The words you uttered out of your mouth shook me to the core

Now my body still gets chills

When I come to the pier

Even after all these years
