I Am Home Again..... Poem by RIC BASTASA

forgive me
for i have changed

did you also wait for
that kiss?
that perfect timing
when we will be the only
two in that sad room?

forgive me for
i have changed
i go back into that
relapse of simply
pleasing myself

the wind caressing
my hair
the breeze singing
my lullaby
the sands preparing
my bed for the night
and the moon
lighting my head
as i begin to dream
again

back to myself i whisper
to my heart
here, here, i am home
again.
