Day after day
I sit and wait
For you to come
Back here to stay

I miss your face
You smile, your laugh
But you’re not here
It’s lonely, this place

Keep up with your art
Photography too
I’ll keep your letters
All the while we’re apart

I know you need this break
To do your own thing
Call when you need me
Whether I’m sleeping or awake

Our bond is still there
No matter where we are
The distance matters not
When the love is still here

Follow your path in life
Each and every road
The maps show the way
To untangle your strife

In my heart I see
You’ll came back to me
You know it too
That’s why I set you free

I understand why you went
Without me by your side
But reach for me
When you’re completely spent

I’ll hold you here inside
Keep our memories dear
I’ll be waiting for your return
Stripped of all my pride


There’s no more to say
This is all I can do
Until you come back
Home some day

:iconbelovedchild113: is holding a music inspired contest. Basically create a piece of art or literature inspired by a song.

I chose to write and with that option came the rule of not using any of the song lyrics in the piece, which was extremely hard, I will admit.

Anyhow, I chose Josh Groban's (big surprise) piece "Home to Stay". You can watch a clip / hear the song here -->> [link]

I've not heard that song before but this is a lovely poem. I really like your choice of structure with rhyming the first and last line of each stanza. :)

When I close my eyes I can see / The spotlights are bright on you and me / We've got the floor / And you're in my arms / How could I ask for more?
