THE ASSURER

(Photo by Anastasiia Rozumna on Unsplash)

A calm evening in her company is better than any boisterous party

Words left unsaid are spoken within the sound of silence

Where there is no room for neither pretentiousness nor vanity

Mere nods and gestures convey camaraderie’s very essence.

A knowing smile emblematic of assurance

Spontaneous tears suggesting it’s fine to be human

Gentle humming that soothes one in her presence

Lending courage to take head on any inner demon.

A salve to soothe unhealed wounds

A balm to relieve hidden pains

Luck me for such gains!
