The Runner

 “Sir, please, if you'll allow me. You know that I've been loyal to you. I've never done you wrong yet, I don’t understand why you’re coming at me about this.”        I know the answer to this already: it's no. Nonetheless he still acted as though he needed a minute to think about it, like my loyalty is questionable. Staring at me with a smug grin, and cocky attitude. He's a pufferfish, I see through him. I get it though. Gotta do what you need to in order to keep the front and keep  the backup of your people.Can’t allow them to question the way you run shit.  That's when he finally spoke out, “You're right. I'll hand that to you.  You have been a loyal runner for me.  I appreciate you for that…….. This is what I'm gonna do.”        He shook a finger at me as he sat in his chair, one leg crossed, ankle resting on the knee of the other.  He sat there  in his grey suit with a pink button up mens...

A Letter Never Sent

     Out to dinner for your birthday with a card and a bouquet. I was the only one who remembered, that's what you said. It was the last time I saw you before things turned south. It was a moment that helped a long trail of rocky roads. I'm glad the last stop was a pleasant one. Noone wants for their paths to end negatively. I'm glad that I could give you a great last memory. 

     The boquet of flowers and dinner was the least that I could repay with all you have done. You have given me life and always did your best. You gave me memories I will always remember. You struggled hard so that I could always have the best. I thank you for all you've given and taught me. I wish that you could be witness to more. But for now we will have to say nevermore, until the time has come. 

     We shared a long ride and the turns and journeys we have taken. Although you've started my journey and others as well, yours has come to its end. So with that said this letter I will not send. 
  
 Love, 
         K. Snyder
