I'M Homesick

I’m homesick for places I haven’t yet been
Places unpronounceable are calling my name
My eyes crave the beauty of sights I have not seen
A fire I can’t see warms me with its flame

My feet walk the same path when I leave and come back
And my ears get tired of the same boring tune
Where once there was nothing I’ve worn down a track
Where street lights are so bright I can’t see the moon

I’m homesick for places away from my own
Places that make my heart feel alive
Where the people are friendly and my name is not known
Places that give me the change to thrive

You can tell my I’m crazy but I’ll never forget,
I’m homesick for places I haven’t been yet

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
