Home Away from Home

Stepping out into the unknown,

Carrying dreams I call my own.

Leaving behind familiar skies,

Chasing freedom, chasing lives.

Doors closing softly, walking down the street,

Every step echoes memories I keep.

Lonely in the crowd, feeling so small,

But inside a fire burns, standing tall.

Missing the laughter, the warmth of my place,

Yet there's a new horizon I must chase.

Finding parts of myself I never knew,

In this big wide world, I’m breaking through.

This is my journey, my stepping stone,

Learning to love being alone.

Finding my home in the space I roam,

A new heart to call my own.

Night falls and I miss those familiar lights,

But I’m discovering my own heights.

Every small victory, every tear,

Shows me I am becoming more clear.

Memories linger, a gentle reminder,

But I’m growing stronger, becoming finer.

Each new day, a lesson in town,

Turning my fears into a crown.

This is my journey, my stepping stone,

Learning to love being alone.

Finding my home in the space I roam,

A new heart to call my own.

Sometimes I sit under the open sky,

Thinking of home and wondering why,

It’s in my dreams and in my mind,

Home’s not a place, it’s what I find.

So here I stand, brave and free,

Building my life, just as it should be.

In solitude, I find my grace,

This is my home, my rightful place.
