~~The Poets~~ “A Collaboration by “Speaks Volumes & Sam Scott”
"Perhaps home is not a place but simply an irrevocable condition." - James Baldwin

When I'm lost and alone, there's a place I can go
Where my derelict condition just does not show
Like a security blanket, or warm woolly throw
Comforted securely when wild Winter winds blow.
When I'm too far from welcome, there's a place I reside
Refuge here from the yearning, I have no need to hide.
It's peaceful and hopeful, a colourful space
With a welcoming atmosphere my heart can embrace.
Not somewhere external, but a place deep inside
Always within me, though I wander far and wide
A magnetic pull so my soul knows it's place
A path leading home for my footsteps to trace.
