I will meet you at the table
even pull out your chair
invite you home for a while
to feel the depth of my care
I will pour my heart into your cup
in hopes of quenching your thirst
feed your soul with my love
to satiate your search
I will nourish your desires
by filling your plate
with a delectable closeness
never forcing you to eat
I will listen as you serve me
what you’re willing to share
even if it’s how I’ve hurt you
I’m willing to swallow my share
I will sit with your anger
and the sorrow underneath
the cloth may hide the table
but the scars remain beneath
I will stand when you stand
wishing you would pull me in close
invite you to stay
tell you this heart is yours
I will meet you at the table
but I won’t sit here alone again
hoping you will join me
while starving for the war between us to end
