Solace
Published in
1 min readAug 23, 2018
what do you do with
old love that bends at the
very thought of it?
you connect the dots
build homes from
every crooked line
and then —
you look at your faithful companion
while she sleeps
haphazardly in the afternoon sun.
you are thankful
she excuses you when
you forget the little things.
forgiveness is her motto.
her little heart beats for you
and no one else.
finding solace in her truth
is all that matters,
nothing else compares.
