Come Home.

Chris

Now that you're not here, I miss you more in every way
I'd give up everything I have to be with you just one more day
I crave your infectious smile, your laugh and your gentle kiss
My heart is aching and it's all of you that I miss

We never appreciate one's imperfections until they are not here
I'd sacrifice my own life if it meant I could hold you again, my dear
All I want from this life is for you to come home
I'm out in the wildness and never felt more alone

I hate myself because you gave up everything for me
I gave up nothing for you even when I got down on one knee
Being married to you is all I've ever wanted
But I gave this away for nothing and now I'm just haunted

Haunted by the memories that we worked so hard to create
My destructive personality gave way and began to dominate
I destroyed what we had and I'm the only one to blame
I don't want to live this life as nothing will be the same

I write love letters to you every day to win your heart back
The same heart I broke as I let you put things in a bag and pack
All I needed to do was put my arms around you and say I love you
Instead I showed no fight and disgraced our untold wedding vow; 'I do'

I still want you to be my best friend, my partner, my Wife
I love you now and forever; I promise you with my entire life
Please come home; there's nothing more I can say
I can only hope that we plan another wedding day.

  • Comment from author about the poem: After my fiancĂ©e and I set a date for our wedding; I let her walk out the door because I pushed her away for a number of months. Not even I know why I did this; that's what hurts the most.
