Let the evening star guide

Us, as we find new places. New

Horizons, where the sun

Finds new light; Light we have yet

 

To feel

 

On our skin, skin so cold

With fever, afraid to feel

The light, its warmth, our home

 

We have no home

 

No, we have many. For

Home is where

Where I am safe

But this is the most terrifying truth

 

For when I leave

Leave this home, the one

I've known, known for so

Long, how will I know

 

Where is my home?

 

I follow the morning sun

Feel its light, know

Its glow. I will let go of

This home

 

Follow blindly

Blindly into the light of

The sun

And wander until

 

I know I am home
