I am home

​I’ve lived by the ocean
Connected 
to every coastline there is
The sea spray
The gulls
the scent of engine oil
Carrying promises 
Undeciphered

But it wasn’t home


I’ve lived in the mountains
My mind touching the skies
The air clear as pure thought
Cool as naked solitude
The land it’s own map
Laid bare
Free of trees

But it wasn’t home




I’ve lived in the big city
New faces every day
Walks still undiscovered
Never running out
Of anything 
But time

But it wasn’t home


I live in a small town
I know every street
Most faces
My name is known
By most

But it’s not home


I’ve read a thousand lives
Out of this world
And the next 
I turn the page

And I am home
