                                          tell me
                                         that I'm
                                     here to see my
                                  mom after this four
                            years without any calls came
                       starving, lonely, alone, abused, ruined
                   by the unfair world, went to the other land
             perhaps,finally, the fortune was there,would be there
                             I nurtured them, I served for 
                             their demands, I just need is
                             to pay me back,  but without
                             knowing,  oh why it would be
                             I just dream to escape to the
                             tale of poverty,but they treat
                             me as awful as vagabond cat
                             hit my thin, rough skin until I
                             see one light,o tell me please
                             m I at home?want to go home

I hope you find your home from where you'll never roam. And know that it is there within your heart. Be it gable or a dome, be it wood or Styrofoam. May you never be alone or be apart. Peace. :)

We all need a home. I would never want to go back to the destructive home of my childhood. I am glad that with God, my wife and son, I have been gifted a peaceful home. This is a emotion filled house you have built with your words.

The simple words say a lot and convey strong emotions without a lot of window dressing. Nice job. Emile.
