BOOMERANG

anticipating for the return of a loved one

Boomerang

Spinning in circles

No more than merry-go-round-and-round.

Here, you left me standing and right here I am

Waiting…

Like a nest, for the bird that may not return

Hopeless….

A prat I am, they say

My bare feet on coals yet every time I blink

I pray for you

By thorns of your lies, my heart, pricked

Every tear that leaves my eye is a wish

Wishing you were here.

And every breath I take reminds me of you.

I gave you my all and held on to nothing.

I’m cold and deaf in this loud silence

As my heart bleeds at each passing moment

I’m still here, glued to the idea of you

Returning to me.
