It's What He Doesn't Promise
He has cobalt eyes,
a sky-wide smile,
and cheeks flushed like roses

I'd skip and glide and leap and run across the stage, my home, my joy. I trusted the strength of my body and the stability of the wood that I stood upon, the arms of my dance partner encircling my waist and holding me steady as a smile wrote happiness across my face.
