Return To Me

We were just kids building castles out of clouds and sand.

But the wind and the waves took you overseas and it told me that you may never be back.

You promised your heart to me and I gave you mine back.

The world went round and I soon had forgotten all about you.

They say it takes 2,000 years for the earth to twirl round once.

So far, the seconds turned to minutes,

The minutes turned into hours,

And the hours turned into days, weeks, months until they turned into years.

I have waited until I turned into fragments of dust and genuinely,

You damned my soul

Because you couldn’t return….

I can’t love; can’t hate in this body; this lifestyle;

So I write and I wait for the next time you will return to me.
