Trailing Behind

Time as always presents itself
Or perhaps it be me presenting to time
Another place as well am to dwell
Finding another place to simply fall behind

Did I leave a trail I wonder?
Will there be someone following after?
Of the many things I do so ponder
At a worsen place I might just feel better

Every footstep where shadows fall
Every doorstep I leave closing each door
Part of me wanted something more
Yet do instincts often tell me to ignore

Amazes me even how I do not miss home
The one place where I'm branded a stranger
And this place itself I'm yet more unknown
To be left however a sensation strangely familiar

Perhaps a goodbye will fall to place
A presentation to have once left behind
Another time will another place I shall face
Shall I but leave another trail behind?
