Her Smile Never Promised
her smile never promised
nor gave any encouragement,
her voice low and unapologetic
and i learned to accept this,
but i felt as if there
could have been something more,
nothing written in stone
but maybe a hope, even
as she continues to run,
what is she running from,
is it from me or herself,
i realize that there was no chance
once she made up her mind.
