Maybe home's what makes you feel wrapped in two arms, 
Or it is when you could feel the silence with a warmth.
 
Maybe it’s when everything's slow and you could feel your heart, 
Or maybe it is when you get what your heart really wants.

Is it a home when you get the games and scars?
Or it is when you’re respected and valued the way you are! 

Maybe home's not about sympathy from someone but the feeling of their presence, 
Even if they live far away, you still can feel their essence.

Is it a home when you get the love of fame?
No, it is where you feel seen, heard and understood around them!

It’s home when you don’t need to explain yourself,
And it’s when they don’t celebrate the pain you’ve felt. 

Maybe home's when you’re still calm sitting right next to them,
Or maybe it is when you feel like you again.
 
Home's what makes you feel the physical presence of someone even if they’re not,
Or maybe it is when there's patience and calmness instead of a taunt. 

It’s not home when it is just a physical persistence,
It's when you touch their heart with much distance. 

Is it a home when there’s always a rush? 
Or it is when you just get a soft physical touch.

Maybe home's about them hearing your silence and understanding your words. 
Maybe that's what home is meant to be, or maybe this is what it always was!
