Without a Home

How do you know when you're home?
"Home is where your heart is," they say, but what if my heart lies in different places? Do I not have a home or do I have multiple ones?
I've lived half of my life here and half there. I don't like not knowing where I belong. I feel so happy when I'm in one place or the other, but I feel like an outsider in both. When people ask me where I'm from, I never know what to say.
This is something I wish to fix. I want to be able to go and not miss it here. I want that wave of nostalgia that rushes over me as soon as I visit my first home to go away.
