Going Home
March 31, 2011
You stayed
for a while
I tried
to make you smile
You were here
but they were there
It killed you
and they knew
You wanted to leave
to go home
but she said no
so you stayed.
Now you're leaving
Barely even a goodbye
But you need to go
To be happy
To be with them
To finally be Home.
