Home for my heart
A visitor in my own skin stopping by as a guest
Rented out happiness with no permanent address
As searched for stability I found a place to invest
This pulsating pound of flesh beating in my chest
Courage now coursing eternally through my veins
Allowing me to break free from a history of chains
Gave myself permission to surrender my soul
Rooting resiliency deep in the core of my bones
Moved in full time now with a sense of feeling whole
Since my fleeting heart finally found a forever home
