Already heard
the answer
Made my decision
right or wrong
Will believe
in
that answer
Made clear
and
so profound.

In the forest I found
A house, a home
So profound.
No windows to shed light
But a cozy home, a place for respite
Adorned with flowers pink and white
A bell to toll when someone
Strange comes lurking
Late at night.
A front door I can’t find
Yet welcome are all
Who poke their head inside.
May you see this house
So profound
May you enjoy all it has to give
There in the forest
This house, this home
That I found.

Another world drifting by
Deep, high in the sky
No words said, no lies or cries
Life lived in another way
A world that gives but never stays.
This world’s sky is lit
By that that seems round
Hardened softness no one knows
Nor hears a sound.
Another world far away
So profound
Guides me by day and night
My path is full of light
I tread on gentle ground.
Another world makes me see
Love in this world
No need to be in that other world
My world is all I need.
