52. Michelle Obaming


Bob Marley - Satisfy my soul

If I ever
see you again
I don't know
what would
I do

maybe 
I'll drop 
everything
and run to you
to hold you tight 
in my arms
against me
kiss your 
forehead
countless
times
like a mad man
and never
let you go
again

but 
I will
probably
just freeze

but
if I don't

people
would stop
and stare
at the scene
I'm sure
some will
relate
and smile

and some 
will watch
confused
and strangely
I won't
mind

but 
in the end
everybody
will carry on
with 
their days
their lives
because
that's just
how this is

but
not just yet
because
when I hold you
again

there won't be
any disguising
no hiding

no anxiety
no adrenaline
pumped guts
no tickling vein
in my right eyelid
no looking around
just looking at 
each other's eyes


it will
feel like
coming home
into your arms
after a long journey
exiled
overseas



and you will 
recognize
the
underlying
courage
and
my pledge
to you
in the foreign 
accent
I picked up
during 
that time

there will only
be place
for this certainty
and peace inside
to stay home
all Sunday
and watch the rain
from our
brunch in bed
because we'll
have tomorrow
figured out

but don't worry
I know

just not yet
