The Restless Heart


Home is where the heart is
Thats what people say
Does this imply
That anywhere a heart may find itself
Is a good place to remain?

Hearts are restless creatures though
Chasing this and that
Leaving rooms empty, cupboards bare
and boxes unpacked

the belongings of the moving heart
Are labelled no fixed address
Although a permanent home is what they seek
they take up any room for rent

A true home for the heart
Exists, its true, we know
For without origins of rest
For the soul and the heart
Why would so many roam?
