it took me a long time to realize that the
deep
dark
feeling of homesickness would not fade
with a simple location,
or even a pair of warm arms
to pull me closer at night
or evena fulfillment
of a dream close to my heart
because the home i'm looking for
is not so easily achieved.
it is not a place
or a person,
but an ideology;
the feeling of
wanderlust
homesickness
hope for a new future
in all us humans on earth is that of
peace.
subconsciously or not, we are all searching
for the day that
we may live together without
prejudice
intolerance
hatred
belligerence
conflict.
we are searching for a breath of fresh air.
