Will You

will you walk in now
will you?

will you walk in with freshly laundered clothes
clean and dry from sun and wind
will you walk in with hair just washed
damp strands clinging to your neck

will you walk in with strong legs and feet
firmly striding across the floor
with that smile
with that beaming smile
that could melt a thousand hard hearts
will you walk in and take me in your arms
and gently pull my head onto your shoulder
so I can weep an ocean of loss

will you walk in now please, my love
will you?
