Going Home

Been away and gone for so long I don't know what's waiting for me at home. I came to this world a stranger treated like an oddity that was meant to be left alone Not knowing the words never feeling the love hate taught me how too be alone For years as a freak treated like a dog not knowing that it wasn't my fault Looking for the way out to stay out of the way to not be seen or heard at all Finally got a voice finally can be heard yet still don't belong still nobody knows The once discarded burden out of the blue becomes an asset an upper hand A voice of a stranger but the body of an outcast and Still can't find where I belong Stop trying to belong stop trying to fit in was blessed with a gift a voice from God Meant to teach meant to guide meant to remember meant to be both light and dark Forever leaving not any where to go nowhere too be but easy too leave No roots no ties only the knowledge the Blessing of the universe just be me I miss home but I don't know if I've ever been home no matter where I go Time to look at me from deep inside tired of leaving time for a rest time to live No one knows the path I've been on its time to share time to share my story All I have are these memories and a hope and a dream that one day I'll be home.
