A poem Welcome,

Love,

Come on in,

I know it's been a while I kicked you out and barred the door,

Thinking that you weren't worth the while Too many times I had felt your cut and I thought you were the real danger Sure,

Maybe I would lose something,

But a quiet house seemed safer There is a peace in solitude There's a time to be alone And in my heart there's gratitude for all that I have grown But I welcome you back now I think I'm ready once more Ready at least to try and learn how to love in a way I couldn't before Oh,

But I was wrong,

It seems You were never a guest at all that could be asked to leave You're the earth this house is raised on You're deep within each wall You're the frame that all is built upon And you were here before I could call Then be welcomed here in this house that is just as much yours as mine And let there be no more doubts That I was surrounded by love the whole time
