Description
Momma and Daddy are before dawn, coffee cooling on the sill,
Three kids at the kitchen table, laughing loud against the mill.
Grandma's pecan pie on the windowsill, county fair ribbons in the trunk.
Every August we'd chase neon, Vegas lights in a backyard farm.
Momma fought that first hard fight and beat it with a stubborn grin,
We thought the worst was left behind when she tucked us in.
But nights got quiet after Daddy left at forty‑two,
A denim shadow by the mailbox, his flashlight left for two.
I keep the ticket stubs and postcards and a shoebox tablet twine,
They smell like grease and summer and that porch that he left behind.
Carry me home on Daddy's old trail porch, light on for one more night,
Hold me a little longer till the edges feel alright.
Carry me through county fairs and Vegas summer songs,
Carry me home where our broken pieces still belong.
Grandma's hands grew smaller, her story softer in the dark,
Holidays at her kitchen, cinnamon and a whisper of her past.
Momma kept her laugh like a lighthouse until the tide pulled low,
She was forty for the day the world turned cold and slow.
I was twenty‑one with a heart full of fear,
An eighteen‑month old and a swell of life,
Grief wrapped its fingers round our table like a winning knife.
We laid out Polaroids in a line,
Hands trembling trying to make a map,
Of birthdays, fair rides, neon nights,
The places love had kept us snug.
Carry me home, home.
Carry me home, home.
