I waited on you and you stood me up
left a still being
swallowed by solitude
spinning in days of turmoil
late as always, but you came
shook up my world
wanting and longing to just be
to be here all the time
i be waiting
resting on wavy waters
and even though pillows don't feel the same anymore
you lay with me
and even though you hesitate
you bring joy for me
and even though i miss you
my children never have
and even though i might reject you
or medicate you
to just let me be
you never left me
