I wanna go home

I wanna go home

A Poem by oubliette
"

letting go of someone that you love, but you know if you stayed with that person, you would be lost, even to yourself forever.

"

Thinking back on the times we had,

The dreams from our hearts we would bring to life

Now all is changed, and it all seems too sad

 Knowing now I could never be your wife.

I made you my life and lost myself along the way

Deeds were done cutting shards of glass through my soul

The cat and mouse games I no longer wish to play, what more can I say

Love me for who I am, or baby I wanna go…home

I wanna get back me… I wanna do all the things that we had planned

Knowing you won’t take the stand. I wanna go home.

 

I know I my part in this charade is just as bad as yours.

 Coming up with this and that, to delay walking out the door

I wanna go home, I need to have a peaceful place

Where I can truly show my face.

I wanna feel my soul and watch it grow, and grow

To stay with you, means to walk a path I can’t go.

 

I wanna go home, seeing with true eyes

I wanna get back me… I wanna do all the things that we had planned

Without you by my side. I wanna go home.

I would sing a song of all the beauty that’s come into my life

So much of it came through you, but I will not live a lie

You say you love me and we can make it,

What I see in your eyes cannot be mistaken

It’s the call of the wild, the call of the world

I wanna go home, I need to clear my head and mend my soul

Being with you my story can never be told.

I wanna go home, there’s nothing here for me,

Detachment of self, bring no peace or help

If from you that’s all I have left to learn

I can learn it on my own..

I wanna go home.
