Calling me home

As I drift in and out of sleep
waiting

You call me from far away
calling for me to come home

the call so inviting, persistent
reminds me of what I love

but I can't wake, can't move
can't make the journey

clear and constant every day
you tell me to come back

as the sand slips through the timer
and life diminishes

because my one request from the God who failed me
was to return to you in the end

and yet,
I am holding on, waiting
