Homesick Dreams and Bright New Paths

Long road ahead, but my heart's in the right place

Lights on the stage, I see my dreams in the backstage

Footsteps on unfamiliar streets, longing for familiar scents

Missing my home, my faithful friend, my loyal pet

Days are long, but my spirit's strong, chasing a new dream

Building a future, painting scenes, or so it seems

Every step I take, I carry their love with me

Moments apart, but in my heart, we're always free

Home is where the heart is, no matter where I roam

Pet's wagging tail, whispering tales, reminds me of home

Spreading my wings in this grand new scene, I find my way

Doing what’s best, passing each test, learning every day

Lights flicker, shadows dance, I see their faces in the glow

Though I miss them dearly, I’m becoming who I want to be now

Proud of the path I chose, with every lesson, I grow

And through it all, I hear their call, guiding me somehow

Soon I’ll return, with stories to tell, and a degree in hand

But I’ll cherish the memories, the love, the furry stand

Home isn’t far, it’s right within, wherever I may go

In my heart, I hold dear, my dog, my home, my glow
