I need a home
But there is no home
Within me
And there is no home
Out here

I'm left here wondering
Is there a home for me
Somewhere out there?

Not a person
But a place
For people are temporary
And homes shouldn't be

I don't want to make you my home
And then have to move out
Taking my things with me
And leaving yours

I don't want merely a house
Or a home for a bit
I need a permanent home
To rest within

Give me a home
To place my soul
Within
For my soul can no longer
Bare this emptiness
It resides in

Give me a home
With green plush grass
To lay my soul in
As it grows over and around it

Give me a home
With a long tall swing
To allow my soul to fly
To where it all begins

Give me a home
With a deep inviting forest
To let my soul wander
Get lost somewhere aside from in here

Give me a home
To lay myself in
While I dissapear from everything
Inside of me
And everything out here
