Home Again



For the ones we love
Our parents, our children
Brothers and sisters
Husbands, wives
And dearest friends
Our inspirations
Inhalations
That make our families real

Without cynicism
Or guile
I've lost too much
To speak coldly
Or carelessly
To an open heart
Take them home
And home again

An angel of songs
Lost his voice
And the only peace he has ever known
Is the joy of a kindled heart
Felt from a distance
Inspire
Inhale

Alone, but giving everything
To keep them warm
Their joy is my only respite
Those ones we love
Without cynicism
Or guile
They've lost too much
So I'll give
And give again
