Awaited
It was long weeks,
months and months
that felt like ages.
.
You were present,
just not quite
here yet.
.
We waited,
and waited,
and waited.
.
We knew you weren’t ready
to come home.
.
It was long weeks,
months and months
that felt like ages.
.
We debated names
and colors
and traits.
.
We wished
and planed
and waited.
.
We wanted to really be ready
when you came home.
.
It was long weeks,
months and months
that felt like ages.
.
We colored
and knitted
and painted.
.
We worried,
obsessed
and waited.
.
We were not remotely ready,
but you were,
you were
home.
