Evening Vigil

Pop64

She sits by candlelight

Surveying the room for imperfections

Noticing details of life collected through artifacts

And knickknacks that adorn her walls

 

 

She exhibits patience

A virtue reserved for those wanting

Needing to have something more, but resists

The temptation to fight harder

 

 

She can be anyone

But she is herself, retaining pride

Feeling within her that dignity bears importance

That relationships are more than couples

 

 

She is wise beyond us all

As she had loved and still loves

Keeping her heart intact, using it carefully

As she waits for her man to come home to her
