Home is where the heart is, but my heart isn't her
Occupation
Living
ive lost my passion
i no longer have the drive
i once thought that the harder i fall
than the stronger i'd strive

i once carried the torch
and tried to be the best
but now im just living in the moment
and i let my dreams go to rest

i havent given up
but i dont feel that hunger pain
im just taking everything in stride
so i wont have to complain

i barely write a stanza
i barely read a line
its not that i dont want to
i just dont have much on my mind

i dont date much
barely pick up the phone
its not that im emotionally unbalanced
i just rather stay home

i havent shed a tear
i havent stretched a smile
i cant fake like im unhappy or joyful
its simply not my style

people want to know
some people act like they need to know
but i honestly dont know myself
im just acting out whats in my soul

so im basically saying goodbye
not for forever, but just alittle bit
i need an open road and time to think
about where im going and how im goin to handle it

its been nice and quite an experience
ive learned so much from all of u
but keep me in ur prayers
and ill do the same for u

until the next time we meet...
g'bye
 
Awwwww...

I know we've never met, never seen each other's face
But so many of your words have touched a special place
When times were tough and I couldn't be strong
I'd run to this page and one of your flows pushed me on
I'd sit back and read and your words helped me to see
Just how much poetry was inside of me
So now that you're leaving finding your own path,
I'll be praying for you til the day you come back!

Off the top of my head that's what came to mind. You will be missed. I have enjoyed all that you've shared with this family. I wish you the best in finding what it is your looking for. Much love :kiss: :grouphug: In my prayers!
