Coming Home
By Batsheva 8/20/10
When loved ones go and leave you
For a month, a week, a day
It doesn't matter all that much
How long they are away
Whether they're at work, school
Or some "Stately pleasure dome"
It's still a magic feeling
When you know they're coming home
You might not know it
'Til you see them walking in the door
Or at the airport
Maybe on the phone the week before
But in that perfect moment
When you really, truly know
You feel immensely better
'Bout the fact they had to go
Combined with such relief
And joy, and giddiness
It's true
Because you know the one you love
Is coming home to you
