Love Poem: Come Here

Come Here

Come here and place your weary head 
upon this pillow saved for you 
and rest a while with me instead 
of toiling long past twilight's dew. 

Come here and I will sing the song 
that calls you back from where you roam 
and helps you find your way along 
the darkened path that leads you home. 

Come here and let me hold you tight 
and offer you sweet bread and wine 
to ease your hunger through the night 
until you wake from sleep divine. 

Come here with me inside this place 
and stay abiding evermore 
where dreams are kept in love's embrace 
and hope is seen through heaven's door.
