We Are Home



The moment where violins dance
And streams shine
Where you rest your head
Among wool
It's about the direction
Of the sun
And the moonlight
Shutting its eyes
The spot where
You saw
Glimmering treasure
The treasure you held
The place where
The wounds
Were no longer heartless
White empty spaces
And it's where you found the key
You smiled with a gentle wave at the northern stars
It's about the crossed lines
And learning
Where
The sun shined
We are us
And we are home
