Notes About The Poem
This poem is for beautiful wife Rachel who has had to endure more than she ever should have. Rachel I don't know how you did it for so long you're as strong as you are beautiful. I'm more sorry han you can imagine I love you I miss you and I pray you come home.

Come Home To Me

When I awoke this morning 
My love you weren't here 
I doubt you ever do return 
That is what I truly fear 

If only you'd come home to me 
I'd hold you dearly in My embrace 
Kiss you softly on your forehead 
And wipe the tears from your face 

I've already forgiven you for leaving 
I hope that you can forgive me 
I pushed you away with my temper 
This is my fault anyone can see 

But I realized your love is better 
Then getting loud to have control 
There will be no more outburst 
Think of all the happiness they stole 

The air in my lungs is less important 
Then you being here in my life 
I'm sorry for every tear you cried 
I'll be a better husband for you my wife
