Back Again Someday

Folder: 
2001 Poetry

As I walk into the room,

I see you standing there.

Tears running down your face,

eyes flooded with despair.

~

You won't tell me what's the matter,

you won't speak a word to me.

The problem you won't tell me.

I can't imagine what it could be.

~

Now all your bags are packed,

you will soon be on your way.

But I need to hear the words,

"I'll be back again someday."

~

Outside the sun is shining,

but inside me there's a flood.

A raging river of emotions,

feelings in the mud.

~

You're standing in the doorway,

just about to speak.

But as my tears start falling,

you plant a kiss upon my cheek.

~

A kiss to dry my tears,

my smile here to stay.

Cause I finally heard the words,

"I'll be back again someday"
