Home Poem by Emelita C. Smith

My heart wanders from time to time
searching for the kind of love that would last forever.
I do wonder, does this love truly exist or is it just a fairy tale?

I have been to the far places.
I have seen many faces.
I have met different races
But still I am searching the love I am dreaming.

Then, I met a teacher
He treated me kindly and make me feel that the love I wanted is real.
But, my heart still wander and says the search is not over.

I began to wander again in the world of romance and human desires.
Trying to find the love that will make my heart feel at ease and not say goodbye.

Then, there was a traveller, a drifter
Makes me feel good and makes me see
the real me thats hiding inside of me.
I thought he was the one,
he let's me see the things that I never knew the existence.
He spoke with wisdom, sometimes too cached I don't understand.
But then still my heart did not stay and go wander searching for the one.

I thought maybe I just go grow old and turn to grey,
never knowing the true story about the love that makes me wonder and wants to see.
I thought I will never find the piece that will fill the emptiness I feel.
Everytime, I just go wander.

I do wonder, does this kind of love exist or it's just a fairy tale.
Where can I find the way back home?
or am I lost forever and wander till my heart go weary and leave this earthly body?

Then, I saw your photograph out of the blue.
My heart stop beating for a second, searching for clue.
There you are, standing so tall and makes me feel I was floating on the air.
You don't know me then, don't even know my name.
But my heart went out to you as if you are calling me home.

Since that fateful day, you captured my heart with the feelings so strong,
you invaded my dreams even if my eyes were open.
But then, I take it slow, not wanting you to go.
When I saw you my heart told me so,
at last I found the way back home and the story unfold.
It is true and not a fairy tale that only exist in fantasy and dreams.

I no longer wonder, my heart wander no more.
Because with you my love I am home.
In you my heart feel at ease, and never pace.
I found the home that my heart belongs.
And my weary bones gets strong for I know I am home.

Home at last my love, in your arms I dance.
In your kiss I melt, In your touch I'm daze,
In your caress I'm amaze, in your love I am blessed.
Truly forever love does exist and I found that love in us.
Forever my love I am yours and home at last.

This is one of my favorite.
I have written this when love is so fresh.
