Compromise.
I shall find bluebirds adorning my sky
after today,
knowing tomorrow waits
holding assurance to dry bleary eyes,
healing the whys
of today with promise of change,
offering faith
to a much bruised heart that refuses
negation of love.
I resist relegating us to yesterday\'s
pyre and will renew
after today more affirmative smiles
knowing belief will stir
tomorrow, not beaten by housing
defeated doubts,
but ready to reconnect our
togetherness as love\'s abundance
opens to compromise.
After today yesterday\'s dull ache
may then become numb.
