Prodigal

You're lost,
So very far away,
All on your own,
But you know the way,
The way back home.

I try, but fail,
To understand
The reason that
You won't come home.

I only wish
That you could see,
There will always be
These loving arms
To welcome you home.

I try, but fail,
To understand
The reason that
You won't come home.

I do not think,
You even know,
The way I feel.
In my eyes,
You can do nothing wrong.

I try, but fail,
To understand
The reason that
You won't come home.

Why won't you just come home?
