A place to call home

When I was sad

You took my hand

You opened your heart to me

Saying

Here my friend is a place where you can

Just be

Yourself

Feeling whatever it is you need to feel

In order to be real and free

You were the only one

Who did not turn me away

The only one who offered no unnecessary

Platitudes or rationalisations

And so it was you helped me heal

By allowing me to feel most fully

What was true for me

You did not turn your face away

And so here in your loving presence

I found a place to be and stay

A place I had hungered for

Not knowing it

But finally recognising

Deep down inside

When I finally found

A place to call home

It is whether we find it deep inside or with another person… there is no place like it.

  Absolutely Deborah. I find myself still searching for it. It is deep within me. But I still search for it in a place. I want to go back to my grandparents’ farm. For that WAS home. 😊
