At the pier, Waiting for an apology

I stand there  Waiting For someone’s arrival. I'm the only passenger on this empty airport Waiting for a flight That’s never to arrive. I stand at the pier Waiting for you to arrive To give me back my lost childhood An apology. My feet benumbed I become a part of the soil Waiting for your arrival That's long overdue. I stand at the pier Waiting for your solicitude Just an acknowledgement  From your side For the faint of my heart. I keep telling myself  That one day, Maybe just one day That I'll be waiting at the pier And you'll finally arrive And this time  There won't be a dagger into my heart An apology Will finally arrive And make it worth the while.
