I am home
At the fall
of yesterday's dust
shadows of darkness
fill my cell
I drift away.

I sit on
our porch swing
forever empty-handed
waiting for nothing
I hold you
within my heart.

In greying times
between day + night
when silence seeps
up around sound
I hear someone
crying inside me.

I hear someone
beginning to pray
I look around
at our reflections
in the window
I am home.

Happy birthday, my love. 8-22-:) ❤

The mail should be getting better now. They said they fixed it by hiring 5 new people. :)
