What do you call home?
A place, your family, your lover?
Do you know where to go to
if you want to feel safe?
As a child the answer was clear:
a small village in the woods,
our place, house number 4
and a small room on the first floor.
As you say goodbye
you know for sure
life means to keep walking
and to always remember where you've been.
When I return to this place today
and all of these memories are back on my mind:
the crunch of snow or playing in the park,
taking photos of the lake.
And all of this somehow has made me
who I am today.
Time flies
and at some point you realize
that if you want to feel safe
you now have a small room inside you.
There you can find
moments and memories and feelings.
And all of this becomes the music of your soul.
This is your home.
