Epigram ‘n Aphorism Samwiches

Your Saviour

Saving Grace

Is he your savior, your
saving grace,
as I witness
and hear what you say
and what you won’t speak
but emote?

You leaned on me when
you needed me the most;
but what I’m reading now is
what serves you best now,
and I know,
he won’t hold the mantle for long.
When it drops,
your eyes will dart around the room
trying, hoping
not to find mine.
