Promissory Note
by Ramsés Dávila-Luna @ The Writer’s Cavern
In the cold of your eyes I left a deposit
Arms lassoed mine into the vault and left me holding onto the outstanding
Blizzards of paper love distracted safe harbor
Blooms stepped in to refill my self-worth and ignite it
Light showers washed red roses and cleaned trust to revise
New notes softened the budding arbor of passions
Swelter helped sieve so all the bad memories could sink
The sums through humidity trapped breaches and gave a keepsake of balance
Sun closed old fees and helped me take new wanderings
Your old leaves fell to give color to mine
Time shortened to let go of the liar loan
When bark fell to reveal all the hurt in you and its dummy accounts
