                     Please take me back,                                           I stand firm on my inclination to return home                          While war may have caused me to roam                                    Deserting you was the hardest for me                                     Which brings me here with a great plea                   

                     Please take me back,                                                    I was thinking of you all along                                       You are the only reason I long to stay strong                         My latest decisions may not have been the best                    But I can assure you, I will follow through with the rest

                    Please take me back,                                                  I wish I would have just stayed                                             But now I'm being all delayed                                             I wonder how you have made out                                          But for now I sit here in doubt

                   Please take me back,                                                        I will do anything for you                                              I can assure you I will follow through                                         Time is not a factor for me                                               I would definatly pay any fee                   

                   Please take me back,                                                      Maybe I'm just going insane                                           But I have it all worked out in my brain                               Our love is like a fairytale waiting to pursue                     I know it's hard to ask, after all we have been through  

                  Please take me back,                                           Don't tell me you have suffered all this time                         My heart would descend like the drop of a needle                      Love requires forgiveness so I'll give it to you                           But this time the relationship will stay true                              This time the relationship will stay true           


The author's comments:

The Odyssey written by Homer infuenced me to write this poem. I was inspired by the relationship between Odysseus and Penelope after they had been separated for twenty years.
