But Tonight!
Broken day today
Harsh Words that sliced to the heart
Followed by
Dinner served with psychodrama
of the dullest variety
White pablum
tasteless, unfilling
and
Indifference
Avoidance
But Tonight!
My lover arrived with words of solace
Tender phrases of emotion
A caring ear
Tempered by a loving heart
Prejudiced by her love
Yet, honest in appraisal and
Willing to tell me I am special.
Two hopes of Love
One bearing false witness
The other a gift of self
The dual reflection magnifying the other tenfold
A hundredfold
Thank you God for a valuable lesson.
The one today.
The other Forever.
