i remember the day you came back.
i remember it even more
than the day you left
because the day you ran from
the ship, with your
crooked hat and
wide grin
and gathered me in your arms
was the day i had been waiting for,
for so long.
you showered me with kisses
and i thought i'd never breathe.
you told me you loved me
over and over again.
you told me you were sorry,
but i didn't have time to tell you
it was okay,
because you were back to
kissing me again.
the way you held me
was just the way i had imagined it
all those lonely nights.
your hands were in my hair
and your breath was on my neck
and i knew that i had made the right decision.
the road could never be my home,
when the only place i belonged
was in your arms.
