Home Run Poem by Chris Leermakers

Did You Hear That Thunder Scream?
Everything Is Not
What It Seems
Did You See That Lightning Strike
Yes Right On Top Of You
It Just Missed Me To

Stars Falling Down
Your Empathy Starts To Drown
Don't Throw Away
Those Tears
Yeah Just Don't Throw Away Those Years
Just Keep Your Light Shining
Always Watching
Always Listening
To The Skies Above
Not Many People -
Look Up These Days
Not Even
A Star Gaze- Far Away
Too Busy Following
Each Other Around
In Their Own Little Maze

Just Say You'll Be Home Soon
Very Soon, I Bet
Yeah Home Soon,
Even Better
If It's On The Moon

I Know It's Not April Fools Anymore
Sorry About That
I Just Had To Settle Another
Personal Score
Just Like A Home Run
I Think You Understand
Cause This Is Just The Beginning
Not My Last Stand
It's My Home To
I'll Be Home Soon
Yes, It's My Own Home RUN

We Heard The Thunder Scream
Yeah Everything Is Not
What It Seems
Most Of The World Is A Stage
But Not Anymore
Not On My Page
Did You See The Lightning
Before It Missed Me?
Did You Feel The Lightning
Enter Your Body
Yeah It Only Sparked You
Sparked You Today
But I'm On My Home Run Every Day

Always Watching
Always Listening
Yes To The Space Above
Don't Worry You Won't Be Going Home Soon,
Not Even To The Moon.
Just Find Your Own Home Run
Maybe Then
You Can Reach Your Sun
