Awaited

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.
