Come Back to Me

I have made my decisions in this life I'm living. Put forth my best to bring you happiness, but I'm still giving. I watch my family regather, Sharing moments of joy and laughter. I too am pursuing what everyone's after— a happily ever after— Just one without you being shattered. I decided to forgive and forget, because I'm not ready to lose you yet. I realize that if I let you win, we'll commit this painful sin, and I'll never see your pretty face again. So I put down my boxing gloves, Resisting resentment to bring back love. With gratitude I thank God above He gave me you—my one and only—my dove. How many times must I apologize? I don't know; I don't care. At the end of the day, I'm here; you're there. No, it isn't fair, but I'll stay right here, not disappear Since I'd rather be with you than anywhere. With you—my one and only love. I pray for the day you'll wake up and see I'm waiting for you to make your way back to me. Chanté Walker 10/6/2024
