I'll Be Coming Home

I'm leaving for college, but my boyfriend is staying home. This is a poem about how he and I are going to make it through four years of monthly visits before finally being able to be together for real

As dreams unfold

And colors grow old,

Remember that I'm always here.

Just keep that smile

And wear it a while,

Because I love you, my dear.

Hearts grow fond

And days become long,

Just remember, its only you.

The time will come

When I'll be coming home,

To the loving arms of you.

We'll know we made it.

Our lives will be worth it.

And, our love will always be true.
