Come Home

Whoever knew days could drag in this way Could take a whole lifetime to dawdle away So slothic and languid, persistant to stay Feels like you've been gone now for infinate days I remained diligent, I occupied time Busied myself between structure and rhyme This lack of connection seems almost a crime I'm sick and I'm tired of speaking in mime Do you think of me? I doubt that you do I doubt I inspire the verve fixed in you My hope is invalid, my faith is untrue Dreams and what's certain are blurred and askew I perish without you, I perish alone prayers have been answered, you have come home Not into my arms, they're empty, they're stone I'm dying without you, I die on my own
