A Home Maybe

There isn't a home I can go to to feel at home
At least not now... if not ever
Might there be a better place to feel unknown
When in a world I know too well to feel lesser

Do I need to run away?
For myself... from myself?
The world is no more but a place to stay
Because the world is richer without any wealth

Let the world know why don't you
That you won't and not cannot follow
Because too long it takes to 'knew'
That everyday life is over for tomorrow

Even experience cannot teach you enough
The oldest man can have the oldest lie
And the young is not smarter to not understand what was asked
The middle ages sits but in between and sighs
 
I do want to go home to feel at home
At least for now... if ever
Might there be a better place to feel unknown?
In this world to have known too well to feel lesser
