WELCOME

Welcome

​

I saw the freckles on your face for the first time today

Usually you hide them behind heavy paint

I saw the corners of your mouth touch your ears today 

Usually I only see your teeth only when you talk
 

Oh sister, oh how much I missed you
 

Welcome home
 

I saw your hair a-bouncing with each step

Usually you keep your lovely locks all locked up

I felt the heat from your warm eyes for the first time in a while

I used to think the fire inside had died completely

Oh sister, oh how much I missed you
