A Poem by Johanna
"

"He dried the tears in his eye, straightened his tie.."

"

He dried the tears in his eye

Straightened his tie

Looked himself in the mirror, looked away

Took out his phone and pressed her number again

He just needed to hear her say

That she missed him, that she loved him

Even though he knew she did

But without her the days were all grim

Surrounded by grey suits and ties

Trying to get her a better life

When the only thing he did

Was miss his wife

He stood in front of them

Ready to speak

Trying to look confident

When he felt so weak

Trying to pretend

That the words came from his heart

The ones he jotted down on paper last night in the dark

When all his heart was filled with was his love for her

All their faces became a blur

Trying to breathe inside a room with judgment

And too much cologne

Before the applause settled

He was on his way home
