Now I can Rest

Posted: 1st September 2001 by Jab in Poetry

I stay up late

And watch you come in,

To make sure you got home safe.

All night I sit and think,

All alone.

Wondering … waiting.

I think of you while you

Are gone.

Praying you come back safe.

For I am lost …

without you.

This house is empty …

Without you.

Then I hear footsteps.

Could that be you?

You are home safe.

Now I can rest.
