Homesick

Is it the dark or the cold
That shivers me
In the corner where I wait
As the night howls a nightmare
And cries that it's also
Feeling the fear
Of unwanted shadows

The gentle warmth of your arms
Wrapped around me like a lullaby
Is where I've felt at home
They became my lighthouse
They were once all I needed to live
But those arms are gone now

I may not be here
When you return
