I WASN’T SUPPOSED TO COME HOME
Went away that day, a while ago as I’m not sure in time,
Was I lost or did I just seem lost inside, hiding from what?
At this point not sure of what I’m trying to say, my thoughts,
I was sent here to join in on something that should not be real.
It takes a part of you away, destroys deep inside, that’s where I hide,
I wasn’t supposed to come home, I feel guilty and all alone.
Why was I sent away, they did not come back with me that terrible day,
I should be with them by their sides, I can cry but why am I here alive?
I wasn’t supposed to come home, I am alive! they all died.

Sometimes going home is an unmet person its nit always a location.
When I write I enjoy viewing my words so not does not become nit. But I wanted you to know we are all chidten at heart. Returning going home if you prefer that concept is truely impossible as well as improbable because people inderexpet the you ,you have become. I truly found that to be true. The kid me and the adult me never harmed anyone. Writer since 1985. I make a lovely target a six foot blue eyed sensative empath Norweign,German,Welsh,English and Jew.
No one ever sees me gave my elder half sister the ability to falsely accuse me of abusing my best friend and mom.
I wish you luck going home. Life is profoundly lonely.Well I’m working reading Nicholas Sparks The guardian.Well a lovely thing that would be to have someone who cared that much to be apart of our life.
Thanks for reading.
