Composing My Heart
February 7, 2014
home is where the heart
is, mine is in place I
can't enumerate
how I'd love, adore
that one place (if I find it)
where 'tis whole always

It was a bit hard to comprehend at first but that is me and my narrow vocabulary. New one on me. Enumerate. Had to google it. Big words in hiakus are twice as impressive though since they're kind of hard to jam in there! I do hope you find your home!

OH MY THANK YOU. Your comment totally brightened up my day. Ahahhaa. This time around all three articles I submitted together ended up with awful typos hence the threefold frustration. Anyway THANKS FOR READING! I have new stuff up too.

Teen Ink just ate my reply for some reason but what I said was like this: I don't know if this is it, but I can see this as being about wanting to make a deep connection with someone. I feel like the phrase soul mate might be a bit corny, but does that give you an idea of what I mean? Like, I could see it being about wanting to eventually fall in love with someone you haven't met or noticed yet.

Well I don't know if this is it, but I can definitely see this poem being about wanting to make a deep connection with someone. I feel like using the term soul mate would be kind or corny, but does that give you an idea of what I mean? Like, wanting to eventually fall in love with someone.

Okay so I was under the impression that I had replied to this ages ago. Well, thank you very much Teen Ink for eating up my reply. Anyway. EM! IT IS GREAT TO SEE YOU! AND That is exactly what all that moving has helped me with too! Though if one delves deeper this poem ALSO has another side to it. Tell me if you can find that one.

I love how frank and beautiful this poem is, in a sense that how brief it is only adds to the delicate beauty of it (which you are quite good at) and the word choice is elagent (And that "oh crap typo" feeling is something I know waaaay to well)

This reminds me of how confusing the feeling of being home got when I used to move more often. Being home is a comfort, but once you learn to pick yourself up and live without a place like that you can learn to make homes in people, and that is the greatest skill moving ever gave me.
