You Did Not Come

Summary: Still trying to find my voice again after not writing for a few years.




This morning when I rose,
I shaved, I washed my hair
Yet still you did not come.

To while away the morning hours,
I read that book, they served my lunch
Yet still you did not come.

To speed away an afternoon,
I slept, I dreamed
Yet still you did not come.

What is this greed alive inside,
That must be fed by you alone?
Perhaps tomorrow, you will come.
