Come Home

So breaks the hearts of those who cared The many nights they’ve sat and prayed For your return to safety there But no return, your decisions made Your back, it seemed to face them all As you so ventured from their sight But, yet they prayed that you don’t fall To become a victim of the night Without a word or call from you They still all wait and pray you’re fine Forgiving all you say and do At a chance to see you again sometime So, if per chance you’re passing by Please give thoughts to those who pray They wish to see you but again Allowing you chances on other days
