I mean it this time.


Come home. 

Come back to me.

Why'd you even leave in the first place?

 

I miss you. 

I'm sorry.

For everything I said before,

But you're still running out the door.

 

Please come back.

I really miss you.

It's been at least an eternity,

Since you up and disappeared.

 

Out that door.

So quickly.

I guess I meant what I said before.

Don't come knocking at my door.

 

I don't need you.

I'm not sorry,

for hurting your feelings

with my terrible terrible beatings 

Of words.
