A Friend Comes to Visit

When I see you

I know I make sense.

When I see you

the rest of the world

fades away.

When I see you

I don't run out of things to say.

When I see you

I question my whole life.

When I see you

I wish I hadn't stayed.

When I see you

I want to go back

to those days

we laughed in bed,

drank in booths,

shared meals in the kitchen.

When I see you

I want you to return home

and stay

for good.
