Where is Home?
Now with a cane you reach in the deep
Your flame lying underneath the shallows
Letting yourself being led by the shadows
Water brings life, Fire burns then strife
Make amends by building you up again
Wand toward losing the pearl of a friend
No cloud can hide heart & soul’s rainbow
Amidst chaos, the promise of tomorrow*
*This was my entry for Poetry Dice Challenge 3.
Hope you enjoyed it and looking forward to read your participation in this fun challenge.
My inspiration came from the following video directed by Jess Cope which was made for the 'Drive Home' song written and performed by Steven Wilson.
Steven Wilson - Drive Home
Drive Home lyrics
Cold windowpane
A car upturned in the rain
Wait on in vain
Don't try to bear the blame
Deal with the pain
Dust down your wings again
You need to clear away all the jetsam in your brain
And face the truth
Well love can make amends
While the darkness always ends
You're still alone
So drive home
A pause without end
A moment in time suspends
How could she leave?
Release all your guilt and grieve
Give up your pain
Hold up your head again
