Home is not a single place
no, I think it's something more
it's a feeling, knowing that you're safe
to be exactly who you are.
Home can be another's face with lines that look like yours
or it's a moment when you slow your pace, like on an ocean's shore
because when you listen to the waves, your problems are no more
you remember life is not a race, you come back to your core
Home can be a smell or taste, no matter where you go
you sense it and you're taken to a time so long ago
or maybe it's a favorite song, every single word you know
or something new that comes along, makes you feel less alone
I've moved a lot from house to house and different neighborhoods
and in this moving I've discovered something beautiful, and good.
home is not a single place ,or something you can lose
cause home is just a breath away, it lives inside of you.
