Indemnity (A Poem)

Perfection is not a reflection
 
Of reality

As I wait in your line of lauders

To be your one and only

Overlooked

Beckoned only once stepped aside

Your kingdom torn asunder

As if I mean that much

Guilt lying only in wake

Long after the rubble cleared

Friction is not a vindictive slight

This is my indemnity
