Poezja

as he steps  in
her first urge is to step out
he looks at her
she wants to hide
tears streaming down her face
 
he still doesn’t get
exactly what he did
when he left
she  was all alone
had to fend for herself
while he was gone
 
he thought she’d gain insight
he thought she’d gain wisdom
but her heart was broken
she thought
he didn’t love her no more
 
but now he is back
standing so close
she feels his heart beating
rhythmically just for her
taking her in his arms
wiping the tears from her face
 
softly making a promise
kissing her hair
reassuring her
he’ll never leave her again
she’ll always come along
to help him stand tall
