Home is Where the Heart is
Home. Something yet everything. One place yet many meanings. Sometimes, near. Other times, so far. Yet, it can be felt. A place of protection. A realm of freedom. Somewhere we can be ourselves. A home, not a house. Feelings, not bricks. A reassurance that we will be fine. Years spent don't make it. Warmth received [...]

Wet Soil’s Smell
The rain drops fall Slowly at first, As if afraid to touch the earth, As if scared of its response. One by one, They gauge its warmth, As if to know if it is ready, As if to know how hard to fall. The rain picks up speed, More confident with every new moment, As [...]
Strong Tears
Tears they are. Yet weak is not who we are. Fall they do. Yet fully fail is not what we do. For these are strong tears. Watery they are. Yet more than water we are. Slippery they are. Yet quite firm we are. For these are strong tears. Rush they do. Yet skipping stuff is [...]
If Easy
If it was easy, Why would we even try? Why would we even care? Why would we hang on for dear life? If it was easy, What would be the thrill? What would keep us on our toes? What would make our heart beat wildly? If it was easy, Would it really be worth it? [...]
