Poems by Jonna

You were the best person to love me

I now realize that.

Of all the places that I lived in,

this is where I want to come back.

I dreamed you stared straight at me,

And despite our history,

I knew we had something there

That I could not find anywhere.

 

I wish that you would join me

and come and hold my hand.

To walk the roads together

through the dust and sand.

Of all the roads I traveled,

I heard a cry back home.

It grew in size and strength,

and could not be ignored.

 

I’m coming home again,

and I pray that you will be there.

There to greet me and stroke my cheek.

I’ll meet you by the creek.

All the dreams I had

are now coming back to you.

Let me rest my head in your lap.

I want you to see me through
