home.
i need to go home.
no, mother
we cant go to the store
for we havent been home yet
it is a necessity to go home
before all else
for if not
and the clock strikes five
my hands shake
and tears fill my eyes
for i am not home
and home needs me
yet its more the other way around

home and i
we have a fling
where i come back from my hard day
and she comforts me
houses me
keeps me warm and feeds me
and we need each other
for if i were never there
it would be a skeleton
its insides barren
and if home were never there
id live on the streets
find something so spare

home and i have a connection
if we arent together
after a certain time
we grow weary
lonely
afraid
that the other wont be there
when each other meet again

i need to be home
for home and i have a love affair
she warms me cold winters nights
and cools me hot summer days
and i provide her with love
wear
company

i fear
that if, by five
i am no where near home
time will slip us by
and somewhere along the ride
we will forget each other
for the previous day
would have been
our last kiss goodbye
