Grace

Quarrel,
A moment in eternity,
My heart constricts, resolution is misplaced.
Seeking yet not finding
a waveless ocean of apology
to beseech compassion,
absolution,
reprieve.
Synonym after synonym
Tear upon tear.
Mine own faux
Mine own wisdom doth seduce me.
I petition clemency,
Gladden me?

Reunion,
Eternity ebbs into resplendence,
A yester year of love
cannot discount the depth,
base of tenderness,
affection,
adoration.
Synonym after synonym,
Smile upon smile.
Mine own soul
Mine own heart doth sing sweetly.
I petition renewed love,
Gladden me?

Mine own affection, your immortal virtue.
Gladden me?
