Today my sweetheart was calm
He had the heavens on his face…
I could feel the breeze from his
Presence….
An awe
It was so unlike him
Today my sweetheart was calm
We didn’t write a poem of fight
He didn’t criticize my behavior
He didn’t talk of my earrings
He had the sunshine on his face
Today my sweetheart was so so
Calm
It made me want to hug him
It found me dreaming of a future
With growing kids and bliss
Today my dearest was so calm
I didn’t want to break the moment
I just wanted to stare from a far
And wonder who was responsible
For it
And I prayed it was not me
For I was an ‘unreliable calm’
But who was I lying to
For I wore the same calm
On my face
Because we were in love
An unforeseen love
One like the storms and breeze
A taste of salt and sugar
Bitterness and joy
Ecstasy and Grief
Lord Help Us………..
