I can't find my left shoe

Sorry
I'm sorry I haven't written.
I'm sorry it's been so long since we talked.
The days and weeks slip by so fast.
It's not that I haven't been thinking about you.
No amount of other activities, however important they may be, makes it alright.
Writing now does not make anything better.
Writing now does not turn back the clock.
What else is there to say?
Merely thinking about does not float words out into the ether.
If my thoughts were enough, you would surely not feel neglected.
If my thoughts were enough, there would be volumes of manuscript.
I hope that next time it won't be so long.

It starts with the shoe. Maybe the next day it's a t-shirt or a sock. You don't know if the washing machine ate it, or your roommate borrowed it a month ago and forgot that it was yours. All you know is that by the end of the week, you're walking to class naked because you don't have any clothes left.
