2/7/19A Poem by Andre Peterson
I can't explain it.
I can't seem to understand. What it takes to make you come home again. I see reflections, I see the hope shift through my hands. I can't wait I see you come home again. I pressure myself to breathe. Am I all I really need? It's what it takes to bring you home again. My kind heart has patterns. Crosshatched in pink and encased in silver linings. I refrain from coarse words. My purpose in life is to enlighten warm feelings half way across the world. Unbounded passions. Uncertain fortunes. Its all I need to bring you back home again. A careful balancing act. A wish made simple once given a chance. Eyes like a star scattered sky that won't stare back. Poised motionless deep in the lake below. Pushing past my life to give you more time for yours. Falling away from everything thing I had. I gave it all to bring you back home again. I remember sitting beneath a tree, it was just you and me. I thought I remembered it that way. Perhaps it was all just a dream. The world around us was still and quiet. All I heard was the sound of your heartbeat. An overwhelming moment with a friend. But it finally brought you back home again. © 2019 Andre Peterson |
