Coming Home to a Heart
I’ve been away for quite a long time
Big coincidence gets me here, along with choices I made
Many experience and learning : faith, commitment, forgiveness, and finally love
Many things have happened, some things have changed
I’ve discovered enough to retrieve
The fantasy I chased is in no way better, since I’d got the finest
Lust is never love
The pathway is at a standstill, and so I want to come home
I long for former comfort I always caressed
A handful of sincere and unconditional love in my hand
A place I’ve been leaving
A genuine heart I’ve been missing
The only one who takes me the way I am
I miss the freedom to be myself when I’m with you
Knowing I’m secure because you’ll always care
Knowing I’m special because you love me the same through the years
No place is as cozy as your heart
I’ll (we’ll) take care of these well
A settled love I’ve (we’ve) long felt


A very good poem. It covers a lot, including how the feelings of ones heart is dependent on what it is exposed to. I enjoyed reading it and commend you for including it in your blog.
