Annual Rent

It will be July again 
and my Christmas decorations 
will still be up because I hope 
that they will lead you back home.

But where is home?
What do you consider me as?
Am I  home for you?
What am I?
Who am I?

I don't know actually

Currently though 
all I feel like 
is a pile of bones
with flesh laid over 
like a soft comforter
too tired to move


But I want to be more.

I want to be a spark 
that something that changes your mind
a muse
a penny for your thoughts
Quid Pro Quo to your heart

But hearts aren't meant to be rent out as favours.

Though the spaces in them is given out 
You're one of the tenants
Adamant not to move out
And I don't have the heart to kick you out

Someday it'll be time for you to pay up
Rent including the security taxes 
For keeping you in my heart is a battle
which I wish I would've lost a long time ago
