I’ve never had a home but I’ve always wanted one.
I’ve spent a lot of time trying to understand what that word means.
Some say you carry your home within your heart
Others say your soul knows where home is and it’s beyond this earlthy realm.
And if you feel like an alien here on earth chances are that resonates with you.
I’ve always searched for home in my family, my friends, lovers.
Nothing ever felt quite right.
Never gave me that feeling of content or made my heart feel whole.
Nothing ever made me lose that urge I would feel in the center of my body to stop searching.
Not until I found you.
You smelled like home, you tasted like home, you felt like home.
I’ve never had a home, but I don’t need one anymore
You make anything feel like home to me.
