away from home

and when they come
the world seems so right

problems fade away,
everything will be ok

and when they leave
life seems that much harder

after a while
comings and goings

become routine -
but not quite

the joy is as sharp
the bittersweet as tangible

as the first time they came
or the first time you left

but more and more
things happen friends made

time doesnt slow
events dont pause

home is not
a thousand miles away

home is now
right where you’re at

together with family
together with friends
