I see a house,
A familiar place
That warms me
In cold nights.
Outside
I see a soul,
A familiar figure
Vanishing into the darkness
Of the night.
Outside
I see myself
In a body
Numbed for loneliness
Lacking of warmth
Trapped in a future
Of tomorrow's sight.
Inside
I see the house
An unfamiliar place
That mystifies me
In a lost sense.
Inside
I see my soul
An unfamiliar figure
Sinful of worldly pursuits
Fearful of divine truths
Damned and unsaved,
And yet loved.
Inside
I see no one
Except an emptiness
Of a beating heart
Filled with excesses
Of longing
For a house,
A soul,
Someone
To be
Here.
