First Homecoming

I lost myself down the water road,

Took myself to the ocean,

Sure when I woke I’d be by myself,

Shook from sleep by the motion,

Of the breathing body beside my own,

As the sun lengthens our shadows,

In this new place that I call my home,

Where we bless the light when it comes.

I brought my music into this house,

It had to happen sometime, 

I lost the urge to be by myself through the short nights and the winter.

Although the winter is long and cold,

The roof is fastened on tightly,

Though we’ll feel it more when we get old,

We can take it lightly,

You cant go wrong if you build a team,

But don’t rely on it solely,

Feels good to admire anothers fire

When you don’t rely on it wholely.
