HOMESICK
Just a little bit homesick
I miss the family before the fall
The house before it emptied
The time before the time ran out
The constancy I held comfort in
Every ones leaving the families gone
They all have an agenda
Yet life moves on
I need something still
Something steady
Something like a home
But I refuse to let this SICK new dynamic
Be my normal
I won’t get used to it
I refuse
I won’t let this be my home
I will go somewhere else if I need comforting
And if I click my heels I won’t come here
I will be a nomad if I have to
A traveler if you will
If home is where the heart is
Then my heart can stay right here in my chest
If I need a place to hang my hat
it will stay right here on my head
Weird how family can fly right out the window
I cannot sleep
Though I’m in my bed
Because the place I rest my head is not my home
HOME IS A DREAM I BUT BREIFLY OWNED.
