From a dark corner of my being, I finally free myself from a deepened black hole
From a dark corner of my being, I finally free myself from a deepened black hole,
I feel like I've been stuck there for an eternity, immersed in this accumulated misery,
Yet I emerged with courage, even though the path was rough and full of stumbles,
I count my days on the calendar, checking the passage of time with growing impatience,
Now I'm on a dizzying fast track, heading to where I belong,
Home, a place where everyone knows my name,
People who greet me every morning with a smile, making me forget the pain,
No need to speak, for they read my feelings on my face.
I left my city for a race of life, chasing something that doesn't belong to me,
I thought the world would embrace a strange and manic person like me,
I planned to start a new life, but every step was through the mud,
I was a giant in my city, but I became a mere pawn,
I was an organized man, but now I'm chaos in motion.
It's said you only miss the road when you truly miss home,
And I believe it's true, for I know my adoration for my city when I'm away,
My hope dissipates, just like the things in my luggage,
So, I head home to fill the void left in my soul.
In the flow of my consciousness, every thought is a step toward the familiar light of the beloved place,
And in the melancholy of this journey, I find my truth and peace,
Because home is not just a place, it's a deep feeling, a regained balance.
