My World

I think of you always your heart and the war That you fought as you left without closing the door I picked up the pieces in trembling arms and The first prayer I begged that you come back unharmed And It took over me And I could not see I wish you the best and I hope that you soar Send postcards with pigeons from wherever you are The empty swings sway like you were just here But all that's left is the white outline of my heart And a letter titled "My Dear". I choose not to wallow you're safe in my wake You can trust that with grace I will Lay down your burdens to hold back the gates Overflowing and force us to Feel something more Than this open sore But In my world, we'd start again But I know you're letting go But I'll wait, I'll wait I'll wait to see you walking in But I'll wait to see you smile again I'll wait in my world. In these moments I can be myself I can reach across without a single doubt I can share my thoughts and you will see a different person A decent person I am finally not lost I've found my way In my world, I'm here to stay I know your letting go But I'll wait, I'll wait I'll wait to see you walking in But I'll wait to see you smile again I'll wait in my world
