Deep in the Woods and Fields

Home
I’m never sure
Of where
It is or what it’s for
I’m safe
Like livestock caged within
A smile
To hide a toothless grin

A safe, sanctuary

Escape
Myself and chase the world
Return
With comfort in my step
I know
I’m not alone
And still
It seems somehow I’ve grown

A safe, sanctuary

If love turns its back
I’ll turn no more stones
And deep in the woods and fields I’ll go
And call it my home

I’ll stand
I’ll stand my ground
Preserve
The space that knows no sound
