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
