Word of the day - HEIMAT
Meaning - a place that you can call your home
________

What if I tell you
in your deep layers of skin
I found a place
I call my home.
Your touch
soothed me as
nothing could ever do.
People are stable
they can be turned into your homes.
And a home with a heartbeat
that’s just
another blessing to have.
People are careful
so your home is always safe.
But in lives, always come a time
when you have to go
leaving your home away.
And now when it’s a person,
with whom you find that comfort,
that peace, that coziness
which can only be found in a home,
you don’t want to let go
because you’re homesick.
His kisses, his hugs, his loving nature
all that
made you call him your home
and now
when it’s time to call someone else your home,
you are not ready.
He became your place.
He became the place you went to
when you needed space.
He became your home.
