There are times when love isn't perfect. But it always leaves the hope of it being more. This is a tale of a woman who can't resist the promise he'll come home to her instead some day.

Come Home To Me Instead 

As the sun sinks and sets 

things in the night shift. 

The business man goes on the prowl. 

The façade begins to drift. 

The tiger comes out to play. 

The vampire looks for a bite. 

The werewolf starts to growl. 

All brings me delight. 

~~ 

I patiently wait 

for it to be my turn. 

My eyes tear with longing. 

My body sparks and burns. 

My mind goes blank. 

My heart craves more. 

My soul finds a place of rest. 

One with no closed door. 

~~ 

Footsteps cause me to jump. 

Anticipation courses through me. 

Any minute he'll walk around the corner. 

Any second now I'll get to see. 

His eyes, hands, mouth, face. 

That's when the real fire will burst. 

His touch is like molten lava. 

His kiss quenches my thirst. 

~~ 

I don't let negative thoughts intrude. 

I focus on the here and now. 

On being in his arms and 

listening to his screaming wow. 

Visualize him behind me 

waiting for sexual depletion. 

As he fills me with joy and 

releases a sense of spiritual completion. 

~~ 

Our time comes to an end. 

Before we know it we have to say goodbye. 

He goes his way; I go mine. 

We both send a prayer to the Man in the sky. 

Let the separation be short. 

Let us be together again soon. 

Don't let obstacles stop us. 

Promise once more we'll kiss under the moon.
