Friendship

This morning, I bounced out of bed Excited to see you I figured I’d make coffee for two And we could sit on the balcony And chat in the morning sunlight We’ll ramble on about boys and toys, work and study, blogs and stories on life Pleased with the company Pleased with a new friendship   You weren’t home this morning I woke to myself I walked our hallway and lingered the lounge As it dawned on me that you were missing I drank coffee alone And hung my head over the balcony balustrade Catching the sunlight with a ting of loneliness   Come home
