Homeland

What’s a homeland, I don’t know
Sounds a bit too much symbolic 
I’ve got no land of my own
So it turns out hyperbolic 
This home concept is not real 
Could be my imagination 
Sort of melancholy feel
Hardly a concrete location
Not the property I own
Not a shelter from the rain
Not a place where I was born
But a picture that remains
They say home is where the heart is
And my heart is over there 
Far away, where willow trees
Softly rustle in damp air.
