Inuit Son...

~Inuit Son~

A German name
A Native face

Almost four decades old
He has found his place

In his
What should have been life
In the land of his birth
He reclaimed his stolen history
With all its priceless worth

Two separate histories
Both tragic stories from the past
By finding himself
He found the connection
He made them one at last

And by doing so
He became
The Teacher - Storyteller -&- Guide
For those who have yet to be saved

He carves his history out of wood
He carves the faces that haunt his sleep
He carves the healer he found inside himself
He chooses to laugh instead of weep

He believes himself to be a nowhere person
Without a true home or family
Well
This is another lesson he’ll learn 

And in time teach

Family doesn’t consist of bloodlines
It consists of loyalty and trust
He finds it those who inspire him 
And let him know that he is loved

And the homesickness he feels
A guide
An inner voice that will lead him to where he belongs

If he listens to it
If he lets it guide him
It will let him know when he is home
