Gate Closed

As I return home from Working away I find peace in knowing Now Here i can stay But now that I'm here  And your not waiting This house that felt wholesome  Is cold and so lonesome I cook a big spread but it's  Only me to be feed  This house that felt wholesome Is cold and so lonesome I'm sure things will get better But how long must I wait..... before I can close this gate. Its Behind this gate my emotions wait To be set free,To be only for me To be mine to control so I can feel Whole. As each day that goes bye I can see our Lie,our lie that was us,it is done it is dust.    My gate I can close and from here who knows But your now in my past but you won't be my last.
