I Will Always Need You To Come Back

Life is unpredictable. People tend to be unreliable. Friends say, this was fun; Let's do it again sometime. You meet someone new, they say We should hang out sometime. Mom says, I'll see you on the next visit; Dad says, I'll see you in an hour. But friends grow apart; People forget, Mom gets busy, or yet another legal battle ensues and visitation has to stop for awhile; Sometimes an hour turns into two Or a bit longer, and eventually Someone else comes to pick you up or you hitch a ride, because Dads are forgetful, and busy at work. And that's always been okay. People come, people go; That's just life. But you're different. I will always need you to come back. Every time. Can you do that for me?
