Farewell For a While

Feels limiting living in a small place...
I retrace all my sorrows and joys
In a region I've personally proclaimed as my home.

Within my mind is only a dream of another place.
Another desire and wish of mine is to be set free.
I am sorry, but I must leave... 

My mind shall turn into a fixated set of 
Feelings of missing of my young prayed-for angels
(My baby brother and my little sister).

Farewell for a while, my friends,
For I will go onto a journey 
(Alone or not alone, doesn't matter).

As I keep this decision 
(To be true to myself and honest of myself),
I shall be able to continue my own life with precision.

So farewell and be glad for yourselves, 
Even when everything feels out of your own range,
Please remember how I perceived life through
Changings of thinking and changes of maturing mind.
