Likewise I'm Sure

Poem

You strode in

With a swagger and a grin

I hid behind the rim

Blushing wildly

At the thought

Forgiveness is a promise

When it sits upon a broken smile

Or a furrowed brow

Quietly pacing the room

The stars shining brightly through your glass

An airplane with a blown-out window

It gives a sense of gloom

Like the calamity behind you

But there it is, one for you

A reading

Conscience is better when laid bare

Not like butter in your hands

Yet, Cupid himself alights

An arrival that makes everything alright

Feel the torment

Feel the smile

What will bring you two together

Just take a step across the room
