Come HomeA Poem by Haley Lynn ThomasFamily sticks togetherIf you run away tonight Will you come back tomorrow? Will I ever see you again?
The only ones you have Or have you traded us in for something better?
Somewhere an old woman sits in her chair weeping And a young girl wonders who you are
Can only see you through photos on the mantel They don't even know it you're alive
Wondering who he's given up Saying to himself “I'll be back home tomorrow”
