Standing here
 Getting that warm feeling that you get only from family
 But still wanting that dream
 The dream past the orchard
 The dream that I miss
 
 I squinted seeing the fabulous smile of my family
 Giving me hugs and kisses
 Saying goodbye but crushing my friends to see me go
 This is how I pictured my future
 
 I am having secret conversations in my head
 And telling myself I want to stay here - my favorite place
 With the orchard
 And the farm yard
 
 I am speechless but I now realize that this is where my dream really is
 With the warm welcome but also takingmy dream clutching it
 Giving a surprise by staying
 
 this is where love is
 this is my dream
 this
 is
