Closing - A collection of tanka poems
Love the one you’re with
For you don’t know if today
Will be the closing
Of what you once secured
The belief that love stays true
First I was afraid
Of what would come later on
The dark lonely night
But then you quelled my fear
With a promise to never leave
The beauty of love
Only dims when you go away
And leave me behind
To stay in this life alone
Waiting for you to return
