Or Once So Sweet

Home Sweet Home
Or once so sweet
My old home with a gnome
Even a clean bed sheet

So long ago
Was this my home
Except this is just a shadow 
Emerging from my memory like foam
Tactfully emerging from the sea

Home sweet home
Originally my home
My home has become your home
Eagerly you take it away because of the economy

Hi Nikita, this is deep. You are right, home does not feel like back then, this economy's a robbing the hood. Hugs. LINDA
