“Home is where the heart is,”
at least that is what they say.
I never knew if it did really exist;
not until today.

I was lost and confused;
I couldn’t find my way.
I felt used and abused,
and sorrow filled my days.

Forever I felt incomplete,
only a part of what could be more.
To me, it was an impossible feat,
to find that one who I was meant for.

In the depth of my despair,
I heard her cry out loud.
My eyes looked here and there,
and spotted her through the crowd.

What a pitiful sight,
seeing one as lost as I.
What a beautiful sight,
for my hardened eyes.

My hard heart melted,
right then, right there,
and as it melted,
I felt myself begin to care.

She must be a sorceress,
of the ancient magic of love.
Or a heavenly angel,
sent to me from above.

And now we are complete,
together we will find the way.
We’ll never face defeat;
never will there come that day.

“Home is where the heart is”
this I know for sure.
With her is where my heart is
and I could not ask for more!

You did an excellent job of this poem, and I am sure it is also one that very many young people can identify with. I enjoyed it very much.

I've been wondering if you were ever going to return. I always loved your stuff in the past and this live's up to all of my expectations! Beautiful work, isn't that just the most amazing feeling? Do me a favor and hold on to it while it lasts! I loved the wording and the flow of the poem..sigh.. a guy writing a romantic poem, what more could a girl want?!
