Home
Home is
Home is where you feel safest
And where you can rest your heart
And your soul feels comfort
And your tears are warm
And the music you hear in your head is real
And you can smile again
And you can dance in the living room
And it feels like a warm cup of chocolate
Like the morning coffee
Like the first rain drops in spring
Like a kiss from your mom
Like a hug from your dad
Like love

Home
Home is not
Home is not where you fear
Home is not where you cry cold and ice
Where you don't know how to enter the door
And you have to pry a window
And you don't know where the key under the mat went
And there's no running water
And there's no light in the rooms
And the doors can't be open
And in fact they close when you don't look
And you have to lay down your head
Like there's knives flying above you
Like your life is a sin
Like there's no one else there to listen
Like your voice is an echo
And no one answers
And you have to convince yourself that this is all okay
