In your Heart

22 September 2011

Found a place in your heart, to sit and cry and laugh

It’s warm, comfortable, a delicate soft ray of the sun, on my arm, shining

Like the roads that make place for each to walk on, content to just tread along,

Happy to find that inch that is only theirs, an illusion of possession that yes it is mine...

Found that place in your heart, to close my eyes and wonder,

They remember when they are lonely; you miss me when I am...

Beckon me from the other side, I say wait, for another sunrise

Held your hand drifting to sleep, and dreamed

For ages gone in the dream, an echo in my ears, come back home,

Abandoned, gathering dust, come back and paint it again,

With the colours of this season, while the old ones faint...

But let me look for the colours, I have lost mine,

Lend me yours, just for today I promise.

A refugee in your heart, I dream about my home,

Painted with the colour blue, decorated white with snow...

Warm as this refuge, and beautiful as tomorrow,

My home forever to be, but I stay in your heart tonight.
