He’s like the wind…

There
Then gone
Back again
Then gone again
The cycle never ends
I can’t catch him
Keep him
Make him stay
He’s like the wind
Through outstretched arms
I come back empty
Every time

  4. A nice poem – tis happiness when they return and sadness when they leave again. You chose an appropriate theme for personal feelings experienced amidst the fortunate ones whose loved ones are always home. I hope you are well. 🙂

    1. The title I chose reminded me of the main song from Dirty Dancing. 🙄 I guess I was just getting so fed up with reading all the lovey dovey stuff today, that I wanted to make my post stand out, and do something different.
