I wanna go home

When I am sad I cry.
When I am stressed, I cry.
When I am hurt, I cry.
I cry, “I wanna go home”
And I’m sitting in the living room.
When I relax, I read.
When I relax, I sleep.
When I relax, I breathe.
I relax, but I say, “I wanna go home”
And I’m sitting in the back yard.
When I read I sit outside.
When I read I sit in the living room.
When I read I sit in the dining room.
I read and I think, “I wanna go home”
And I’m sitting right there in my house.
When I smile, I’m with friends.
When I smile, I laugh.
When I smile, I am happy.
I get tired and I say, “I wanna go home”
And when I get to my house… I’m not there.
When I talk on the phone, I sit in the kitchen.
When I talk on the phone, I sit outside.
When I talk on the phone, I sit in the living room.
I talk and I think, “I wanna go home”
And I’m there but it doesn’t feel right.
When I’m really sad I sob.
When I’m really sad I want to be alone.
When I’m really sad I want to hide.
I say, “I wanna go home”
And I’m looking out of the big window in my house.

| Your poem reminds me of that one saying. "A house is made of brick and stone, but a home is made of love alone." Great poem, portraying a message without actually spelling it out. Nice technique. |

what a sad poem... I liked the repetition thing you had going down in this though. Does the whole go home thing u mean u want to kill yerself and go to Heaven? Because if so... I can relate totally.

Aww Chelsea. I'm so sorry you feel this way. I don't know exactly what you meant by "home" because it could be interpreted in many different ways. But sometimes I don't feel right either. I'm moving soon to Arkansas, and I don't want to go. It's not my home, and it never really will be. But I think it might be a good thing for me to leave this town, I just want to start from scratch again and leave all the painful memories behind. I'll bring the good ones with me though : ) I really hope you find home eventually, even if it's not a home here on earth.
Blessings
Love, Jenna |

Oh, and nice technique!

I know this feeling. You get there, but it still doesn't seem right. I think it's a symptom of wanting to go home to be with the Lord. I think it affects many Christians once we discover the location of our only true home. As you grow and accept and trust more, I think it will subside.
Praying for you.
