Home
In an eye within a face
In a world with no time or space
In a land, that has no place
Majestic swan that has lost its grace
By a river running nowhere
Winding path leading where
Beside a house without a care
Passing people stop and stare
Signs direct but where do they lead
Already there before you proceed
There in soul lost in mind
Perfect vision why so blind
Destination reached empty space
Footsteps vanish unable to trace
No trail to follow no map to guide
Feeling hungry cold inside
Place to rest sleep the night
Warm inside tucked up tight
Cold outside the hunted's plight
Soundly sleep until first light
Daily toil life goes on
Times are hard years are long
The weak struggle to carry on
The strong seemingly go on and on
Invisible to those with whom we pass the time
Madness around us no reason no rhyme
A dream to begin nightmare to end
Trying to smile we cannot pretend
Wherever we go, we will not always fit
While those in ivory towers sit
Those who judge or treat us bad
In times when we are happy or sad
We fail to realise we are the same
No one different equal blame
We all affect life in some small way
Everyone of us a part to play
A tale you may think of somewhere new
That would explain if only it were true
A place more familiar than we would like to believe
However hard we try to deceive
The place we call our castle our place of rest
Where ever we are we like it the best
No matter how far where ever we roam
This is the place we call home
