No doubt the golden light


No doubt
the golden light surrounding him
holds back much
of the anxiousness of this night,
but he clutchs the flowers tightly by their stems
and wonders again
if they and this date
had both been bad ideas.
Thinking, what was he thinking
when he said yes okay yes sure,
now, less sure
looking the direction she will surely come,
she will surely come, surely come, surely.
what is he thinking
surely she will come
yes.
sure.
yes, yes okay.
no doubt.
