====================
One day I woke screaming
For I did have a bad dream
And as I am trying to get myself
A loud noise outside calls me
And saw someone running away
Bothered with the noise all about
I head my way to the door
Noticed it was open
“He is there” I whispered
For he is the only one who got the key
And as I made I big sigh
I smell the scent of lighted candles
Candles of faith hope and love
Left unlighted before I go to sleep
“He lit it” I whispered again
As I went outside to see what had happened
I saw the roof was already done
Even the walls were repainted with blue
I saw the ladder cradled unsafely unto the ground
The ladder used to fix the roof
It made me smile to realize
Our home was almost again done
But where is he now?
Is he the one I saw running away?
Did I scare him with my loud screams?
Without thinking I run
Run as fast as I could into the woods
“He’ve been there” I whispered
I know he is still somewhere there
So I keep on running to nowhere
While running I keep on shouting his name
With barefoot I got thorned
Thorned by a broken piece of trust
But still I fast as I could into the woods
With full of hopes to see him once more
Still running as fast as I could into the woods
I noticed the book you have given me
Another step I saw the CD of love songs you gave
Another step was cute little stuff of angels
Then another step was a card from you
Few more steps was a letter from you
Your letter on our first monthsary
And as I gaze upon the road I’m taking
Your letters to me are scattered all over
Hoping by picking those will leads me back to you
But what I have now was the last letter I got from you
The place that I am into is getting colder
As darkness started to approach
I can hardly see where I am going too
No moon or stars to shine up my way
Now I am on bended knee
With all the stuff you have given me
Hopeless to have you again
Even hopeless to go back
To the place we call home……
