We walk alone.
We wander
with every intention of finding home.
Home is
not a place.
It's a thought to be obtained.
Walk home.
Where is home?
What is home if you're alone?
Home is fleeting.
We find it in passing moments of contentment.
Home is the comfort of seeing a longtime friend.
It's each unrestrained laugh that passes between them.
It's each present thought that doesn't worry about the future.
If we're alone, are we home?
Not likely.
If we're home, are we alone?
Not for long.
Being alone is fleeting.

WELCOME CA ~ Thanks for your first Poem ~ a real Gem with a timely message. In the UK we say "Home is where the CAT is !" and also "Where the HEART is" My philosophy is "HOME is wherever i choose to be !" I felt really at home in ALASKA ~ AWESOME ~ Thanks for sharing & caring ~ BRIAN (UK) Pleas check my POEMS ~ Thanks B.
Reminds me of the saying; "We are all alone, together". Thought-provoking piece, CA!
Alone is good so long as you are together about yourself. Spend enough time alone and you get used to it. Alone is a good place to be once you are content. Alone and content is far better than in a relationship which is dysfunctional. Good writing. Please comment on my stuff.
