A Stranger In a Strange Land
I am just a stranger in a strange land,
Finding it hard to fit in or understand.
So many things in the name of progress,
Many more were lost, but it’s to be expected I guess.
They are gone, now leaving only memories,
They now belong to part of history.
We know we can’t bring back the time before,
Once it’d passed through that portal it closed the door.
Leaving me here a stranger in a strange land.
Knowing I can never go back to what I left behind,
Yet knowing I now am a prisoner in this time.
