Forgiveness Poem by YURI DURAAN

Forgiveness

Rating: 5.0


Your back is turned to me
and I try to imagine the lines
of your mouth…
whether they are set in determination
or soft in reminiscence..
My eyes follow the curve of your
shoulders, down your arms to your
hands which are busy with something,
I cannot see…
and then you turn around, and I note
the broken heart in your hands
and the sorry in your eyes
but before you can speak I kiss you
in forgiveness…
because of the lines of your mouth
and your hands
cupping my second most precious
possession.
