Shake everything I knew loose
and wrap this blanket around you to stay the chill
I’ll sit here, miles away
while you sit and speak
and say everything I’d wished you’d say
when you used to speak to me
Author notes
This time comes the pain, but I am ready. My love, I wait as I have waited for so long...until you are ready. Until you will come to me of your own volition. And then, oh! I will sing and dance and run and shout for joy and kiss you. That will be the sweetest of all days.
