I can’t help but think I’m falling
out of control
falling or crawling
but why would I continue to fight
when my heart, in an instant
finally felt at home?

Could it be that I’ve missed you
Or fallen father than I knew
beyond the control
I fearfully hold
A reality I didn’t see
until, of course, your eyes caught me
and the sadness was undone
and the burdens overcome
You smiled. It freed me
and in an instant
my heart felt at home.
