Wish
A poem as inspired by a tragic backstory and tequila
~ ~ ~
The prospect of something like forever
Isn't something anyone should ever
Have to contemplate all on their own
And yet here I sit, alone on my throne
Watching as the days go by
Lifting the moon for the night sky
It isn't mine to lift, but I'll do what I must
Until the day you come back
The day we begin to rebuild our trust
The burden is hard and my will is weak
I can't even reach out to you
From atop the tallest peak
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I can't say it enough
I never once realized
Things could turn out this tough
You felt all alone
And now you really are
Suspended in the night sky
Wishing upon stars
But just so you know
Even with all we've been through
I spend every night
Wishing right alongside you
Please come home...
