Empty Bed
Walking home
To an empty
Bed
Thoughts of all
I had not said
Flooded my mind
Fast raindrops
Landing on
My head
Thumping
Heart
Tears began
To fall
Hearing myself
Call
I am home
My darling
Come downstairs
Meet me
At the door
No sound
Of laughter
Or patter of footsteps
On the wooden floor
Closing the door
quietly behind
facing this
Vast empty
Space
A silence waiting
to embrace
Please Help
me be strong
Make this
Once again
a happy place
