Finding Home
FINDING HOME
.
I know the names of death
I know how to write them in a verse
I know the path to mother's breasts
And even in darkness, how to suck them for life
.
I search my eyes for an eye
That sees through these mirrors of lie
I bore a hole on my tongue
So I may know the true taste of love
.
These things on my palm like films
Are the blueprints of the road that leads home
The green strands beneath my skin
Draws me a sweet epistles of hope
.
I have read the testament of misery
And I have become a sucker for victory
I have learnt the language of hades
And I have seen the bareness of pain
.
Every drop of water becomes healing
When a rooftop is burning
Every snow that falls upon this road
Shows me how closer I am to finding home
.
This journey home begins from the mind
Then to every magical line in a verse
Then to the eyes that never miss one shot
And to feet that trample upon all loss
.
