The arms of a stranger feel like home when they hold you just right. I saw the devil in his eyes; I knew he had a past deeper than I could comfortably swim, but none of that matters when “home” feels like more than just a word again. I wanted to feel this feeling before it forgot me but time wouldn’t slow and I couldn’t go anywhere at all without him holding me down. why didn’t I just stay home?

what's that saying again, "Home is where the heart is"?
