homesick

by martin-i

You know how people always build homes in the people they love? Me being the silliest architect there could be Built a tiny igloo in you With little if not no certainty, Within the bountiful depths and crevices In your mind of a maze and icy darkness of your soul I found a spot for myself amidst the craze, to keep myself warm and cosy from the cold. In this little safe haven I seek comfort in I established a place I called my own. My tiny space of refuge I call it, but in it I live alone. As loneliness kicks in I slowly explore outside of home, In search of a getaway retreat Nothing too fancy, nowhere alone. And then I realise how homesick I get When I dwell in the heart of another All I want to do is to return Back into a pair of arms that wont falter. Did I mention how I built an igloo in you and called it my home? Igloos melt in heat and my love, so did you. My home no longer.
