Best Poems Written by Hallie Bowns

Before You'Re Home

You make my eyes light up like the sun.
You make me cry of just pure love.
My heart pounds so loud, just like a gun.
I smile as you look down from up above.
I wear your shirt and hold on tight,
 saying you'll be home later on tonight.
My sweet dreams bring me the treats 
 as sweet as they can seem to be.
I wake up and I’m well aware.
Suddenly you’re no longer there. 
A whole year soon passes by
 before you’re home to hold me as I cry.
