I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness-- Jeremiah 3:3

AS WE WAIT
(for jom for his patience)
I've already pawned
Our wedding rings
Perhaps for some
Couple of months
Or so.
So while we wait
Tossing tomorrows,
Let's step outside
To our barren lawn,
Sit together
On the coconut trunk
Fallen,
Silenced,
Cold,
Unaware
How your hands
Reach out
Warming mine.
