"Prodigal Lover" Written by Caleb Hendricks

Habitual Poetry

Prodigal Lover

I left to seek my fortune
I returned alone with nothing
Broken and beaten down

Dragging this tortured heart behind me
I found myself at your door
Fate had brought me there

You took me in
You rescued me
You showed me love again

For every scar you shed an ocean of tears
For every pain you kissed away
You brought me back to life

You showed me love again
You gave me faith
You took a shattered heart and tore apart your own to mend me

Never have I known such peace
Never imagined that the one for me
Had been waiting all along

I love you Sarazann
Not for what you've done for me
But for who you are

You are the artist who showed me life still had beauty
You are the laughter that taught me how to smile
You are the teacher that enchanted me with your words

You are my love
You rescued me and for that
I owe you my life

Thank you
