Is home somewhere you come from, or somewhere you’re going to?

My own perspective bounces back and forth on this.

When i witnessed this, in France, for some odd reason, it felt like home.

The eternal war
Of sea against shore,
Raged on-
Holding no quarter.
Earth and stone, grinding away,
Blood and bone, decadent decay.
Dancing Girls-
Sharing secrets, flesh against flesh.
As the girls danced-
Under the bright moonlight,
They were something to behold-
Oh, they were a sight.
Dancing Girls-
Holding each other tight.
Throwing care to the wind,
Dancing past the waltz's end.
Onlookers stop and stare-
Oh, how they gossip and drool,
Whisperers a knife in their back,
How can people be so cruel.
But the girls
Just kept on dancing on-
Not caring to ever look back,
Forever entwined, beauty untouched.
They shared their passion with the crescendo-
Of the wind, and the sea, with the moon, and the stars,
The musicians recognized their beauty-
And they joined in with their guitars.
The crowd of people thinned out,
And very soon, they were gone.
Leaving the girls alone-
Alone in their trance,
Alone to their dance-
As the eternal war
Of sea against shore,
Raged on.

@Montanaman That is hauntingly beautiful. The idea of being seaside is one visual of "home" the other is a re-occuring dream. Ironically almost identical to a scene from "Close Encounters of the third kind" I'm playing in our driveway, mom comes to the back door and is frantically calling me in while looking toward the sky. I point up to the sky and happily in a shrill little boys voice holler..."Toys"...
