A story I cannot tell

There is a story,
That of love.
But it is one
I cannot speak of.
It is a story where words fall short
It is one in which love is and is lost.
Although I cannot and will not tell,
It stays with me, forever, oh well!
It's a story that I will repeat again and again
To myself when I'm alone in need of a friend.
It's a story that will make me smile inside
For outside they won't listen,
No one will dare.
They won't listen, no one will care.
For love turns us into fools.
And fools don't listen,
Not even to stories of love.
Fools don't listen, especially when they are in love.
So I'll keep this story, close to my heart.
A fool for you, right from the start.
And I hope I can pen it down some day, 
in a year or two, or maybe thirty two.
Until then, let's just let it stay.
Sealed, never to leave,
My tongue won't give it away.

Find what makes you happy

Find what makes you happy
Hold on to it
Tight
And never let go
Hold on to it with all that you have
With every part of you
With your last ounce of strength
Hold on to it like your life depends on it
Because trust me, it does.
There's nothing more important than your own happiness in this world
Give everything up to find it
Give everything up to keep it
There is much in this world to try and test you
There are many to pull you down
But for as long as your holding on to what makes you happy
Nothing can break you
Find your happiness
Keep it
Never. let. go.

She's never going home

She's never going home,
Home is too comfortable for her liking.
Home means settling and that's not for her.
She's never going home.
Because home means the journey is over!
Home means warmth and belonging;
And she's not up for that.

She's a wanderer, a seeker,
She's hungry for newness,
She's unstoppable, she cannot be tied down.
Yet home longs to see her,
Home longs to keep her;
Home misses her presence.
She misses home... sometimes...

But going home would make her want to stay
And she's afraid of staying too long,
She's afraid staying would mean loving home as much as home loves her.
And she's afraid to love, so she's not going home.
She's never going home.
And Home will never have her.
