Invitation

Not long ago
I decided to become my own home:
I will not depend on circumstances but be at home
in who I am

Here's a lot of space
right in the corner of my heart
you'll find the most wonderful places on earth
walk in, sit down

If you have pictures
I have rooms with high empty walls
and corridors that long to be filled with the sound
of your soft slippers

Don't worry
it's home, it's not the prison you're afraid of
I need to tell you this one thing: I would love
to have you around

I  long to see
your hand let go of the handle
of your old and shabby suitcase and tell you:
Welcome home.
