You: Homesickness.

Baby,
in all of your glory
I am bestowed upon thee

Baby,
in everything you are
I can’t forget thee

Because you
you are everything
you are everything

You are the broken hinge in the door
You are the cold coffee
on a Sunday morning

You are strangers met on the sidewalk
and photos
never seen again

You
You are a coin of gold
shining the glint of pavement

you are pages unwritten
forgotten to finish

And now,
you are a morning pick-up
a case of
How do I get home?
Can I come home with you?

Wherever I am,
there is your home.
On sand under sawgrass
or
beneath the sea
or
above the hemisphere
you and me.
