To Love You Home
blue in the time when you are away
helpless from love and moments true
salted by passion between me and you
divided by the words that I did not say
how much can be asked for the sake of this
to cut and shape the best of two souls
to demand exception and fill the holes
and hope is found in a kiss
rhymes are not enough to soothe
to stop the tears of your heart
to heal the damage of the empty part
and I’m at a loss for how to prove
anything, anything to erase the sorrow
help you to see your worth and beauty as I do
wash away the mistakes with the love I have for you
to carry you to a new tomorrow
to love you home to peace and happiness
and show you what I already know
that my heart is yours where you go
and perhaps we will make work this togetherness
