A Poem by PerpetuallyJune
"

On loneliness and just wanting to be loved.

"
Echoes of yesterday's aches
The sky is black and the seas are blue
I tried to patch up all the leaks
There's more than I can count
But what else is new

I've got no place to live
If home is where the heart is
I admit I'm a little lost
A little cold, a little tired, a little scared
Out here on my rusty ship

Ghosts of the past whisper in my ears
Or maybe it's just the ocean breeze
The rain pours and the sun shines
I'll do my best to sail these salty seas
But it'd be easier if I knew you were mine

Let me come home to you
Hold out your arms wide
And tell me it'll always be true 
When you promise to stay by my side
Out here on my rusty ship
