I've found it hard in my life to feel like I belong somewhere. Sometimes its just a person that makes you feel safe and comfortable, sometimes its the place. But eventually you find that one place with those people with the right environment that is just it.

Its home.

I found home in his deep brown eyes when he just looks at me and stares and it irritates me so much but I could never want anything else.

I found home in the snowy forest, where I can barely breathe I'm so cold, but my music is blaring and my cheeks are rosy and all I want to do is dance.

I found home in a phone call that matters so much, just because she's thinking of me, and its more than I could ever dream for.

I found home with new friends who smile and laugh and call me their favorite and a world destroyer, depending on the day.

I found home in the day at one place, and home at night at another, and some may find that hectic, but I find it perfect.

I found home away from the home I thought would always be home, and that astounds me more than anything else.

I found home in the company of writers and environmentalists, all dreaming big and wishing hard, all just like me.

I found home.

They say "home is where the heart is"
Does that make me heartless...
Sometimes we find home in the most unexpected places, and not until we've moved on do we realize it...
Silence is Golden
Yet
There are Times
it's just Downright Lonesome

You rest your head on my shoulder
As I hold you tightly in my arms
Shielding you away from trouble
And all of this world's harm
You stare back at me
With those innocent emerald eyes
There is such a beauty in living
You make me realize

You are soft and fragile
Your breathing is steady
You've grown so much
Has it been two years already?
Two years since the first time I heard you cry
A cry out to the world letting people know "Here am I"

There you were;
Twenty-one inches, Eight pounds
My heart aches a million melodies
You are a piece of me I've finally found
I am in tune with your heartbeat
In your love I have drowned

I gave you life, you put worth into mine
Together we are bound...
"One of life's most beautiful treasures is the unconditional love a mother has for her child."

You stole a piece of my pie
That one hot summer day
The harder I tried to ****** it
You ate it right away

You made fun of my forehead
That one cool afternoon
Your eyes lit up with laughter
I swear, you can be such a goon

You leaned in for a kiss
That one vivid morning
I was surprised to see you
As the kind to be adoring

You spilled out your feelings
That one intense sunset
Our shadows merging into one
An infinite silhouette

You stole a piece of my heart
That one moonlit night
I didn't try to ****** it back
It all seemed just right

I walked away from you
That one frosty day
I left behind a piece of me
And now I've become astray

You stole a piece of my pie
And a piece of my heart
My world has come crashing down
It's tearing me apart
"I loved him...I loved him...I loved him...I still love him."

When I depart this world
Will you notice that I'm gone?
When I leave this earth
Will you still carry on?
When I am buried in soil deep
Will you simply move on?

When I am no longer part of this life,
There is one thing I ask
Do not dwell on my grave
But do not forget the past

For someday, we will reunite
And you will join me at last
Just be happy for now
That is all that I ask.
Rest In Peace Uncle Osman. The good ones are always the first to go.
