Literature Text

There where mountains are made from rocks and grass
Where trees are old, and soaked with wisdom

There where sleep is deep and peaceful
Where life is never heavy, and unaffected by the darkness

There where rain and sunshine effortlessly unite
Where heaven seem like a possibility again

There where silence soothes cluttered minds
Where fire warms every inch of  craving bodies

There where nothing but redeeming air tugs at the heart,
Where light is clean, and pierces every cloud

There where bones don't crack so easily
Where souls don't get lost or hopeless



There is where I'll find my home
Where my heart chooses to root
So I imagine in a month... or 12
I'll be somewhere having a drink
Laughing at a stupid joke
Or just another stupid thing
And I can see myself stopping short
Drifting out of the present
Sucked by the undertow and pulled out deep
And there I am, standing
Wet grass and white headstones all in rows
And in the distance there's one, off on its own
So I stop, kneel
My new home...

~ Pearl Jam - I'm still here ~
