You Feel Like Home To Me, And I Want To Come Back

Itโ€™s been so long since I last saw you, but I am always drifting to you. I tried for years to stay away, but the stars and planets want me to be closer to you. I ran away to be a million miles away, but my tears wrote a poem just for you, telling me what I should have already known. Next to you is where I belong.

I never deserved anything you had to give because I kept burning the bridges between us so we could never reconnect, but somehow, I keep finding myself in your presence. I thought I would sink on my way to you, but you always save me. When you self-destruct the way I do, the only thing that helped is that you never gave up.

When we used to walk down the street holding each otherโ€™s hands, everything around us disappeared, and we were left with each other by the blue windows on the third floor. We wouldnโ€™t see any people or cars; we only saw each other, and that is all that mattered. I miss when we had the same dream and saw the same future. Can I close my eyes, and will you take me away to that moment of just us standing together? Donโ€™t let me go and hold me tight if we are ever there.

Whenever I kissed you, the entire world vanished, and it was only us. Can you take me back to that instant? You are the only dream I ever wanted to live.

You waited for me for so long in the dark without any hope but always expected me to be back. You knew I would come back to you; it was just a matter of time. You were waiting for a word from me, and I never gave you anything more than a smile. It was safer to keep things vague. I wasnโ€™t ready then, but I am now.

Is it too late to go back in time and be what we used to be? Will you not come back to me if I call your name? What if I promise to wait till you are ready? I made you wait for so long, and I can do the same. Maybe we needed to run around with other people to realize that all we wanted in life was to hold each otherโ€™s hand and be by each otherโ€™s side

All my life, I knew that someone like me was meant to be with someone like you, even if we were the most unlikely pair. Sometimes what we had didnโ€™t feel real because it was so magical. Sometimes it feels like itโ€™s too good to be true, but I was so lucky to have you. You were the fantasy I always wanted. You were the dream I wanted to live.

We needed to be apart to come back together. When we met, our timing was wrong, but I always knew you would come back to me because you are the half for which I have always searched. You are a dream that I have in my waking life. I want to share my life with you forever.

Sometimes I wish I could have saved our little moment in a box and taken it out, because you feel like home. And I want to come back. Wherever you are is where I want to be. I am ready to be home.
