a way home

Times have been tough
Now they just get tougher
when there has been tears,
all i long to hear is laughter.
the roads have been bumpy
the journeys, a long way ahead.
if only there was a way home.
The storms have become heavier
shedding raindrops like pellets
so, how do i sail home?.
if only there was a way home.
There has been no joy since
its been forever when my lights went out
and my world turned dark.
nothing has been the same since
i know better than to ask for anything
or to expect from anywhere else
but if only i could find my way home,
if i could look back without the pain
rise to a sun without the storms
or share a smile without the shadows peeping
then i would have finally found my way home.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

when your heart has found true joy and happiness, you are home.
it is not a matter of a house to make it home, or people who feel like strangers to you.
if you can carry the people you love in your hearts, you'll have home with you wherever you go :-)
