I came to sort a couple things
expecting comfort as of right.
There's family, my sacred blood
surely they'll stand alongside me,
together we shall fight this foe
and victory will call for all
to celebrate the fall of travesty.
It puzzles me, it surely does
that I can sit in Grandpa's rocking chair,
with tired eyes half closed,
and reminisce to distant shores,
where smiling faces, full of love
wait at the pier, all pupils wide.
I travelled, yes to foreign lands
my home, that always longs for me.
Yet ruby lips and silk-soft cheeks
poetic voices, so formidable,
like sirens never met, identity unknown
magnetic forces pull, relentlessly,
they are my kindred spirits,
and they always wait for me.
