To be adored

I spent so long
Cultivating the feeling of home
Gathering stones
To assemble along the floors
Gathering ghosts
Populating the halls with their mores
I took you for
Ephemera, halfway out the door
At least I can remember how it felt
To be adored

I've tried so hard
To recapture my sense of wonder
Lost to my youth
Now the heart is a half-willing hunter
Standing at the center of my life
So much tenderness
That I don't recognize
Lying in the spoils of bygone life
I have not deserved
I've found my way to worth
At least I will remember how it felt
To be adored
