Home To Love And Country Staring out the window of the aeroplane that carries me home All I see is sky, and a wing black against the rising sun I am traveling home to my love and my country Traveling across timezones, the sky a glowing orange. It is filled with swept snow, glistening in the light of a new day An exciting day. I am returning home I will see him for the first time in a long time My nerves must surely be annoying my neighbour, For I can feel them radiating out through my skin, covered as it is by a cheap blanket I miss dinner and breakfast, forcing myself into a restless slumber Moving 6 hours ahead, but time is not moving quick enough Finally. He waits at arrivals And wears a smile in his eyes that says everything I feel I am home with my love And all is well again.
