 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

Far from home


I understand how deep the loneliness
your shadow always waits alone
pools of tears never show you crying
your reflection… so far from home.
Where is this place that will give you comfort…
and soothe your soul so you can sleep in peace?
always searching but never finding solace
only the silence can hear you grieve.
Lost and lonely through all the dark roads
holding hands with anyone that dared
caught in madness when life betrayed you
and wondering why life takes you there.
So I understand how deep the loneliness
and your shadow I see always waits alone
by the pool where your heart is crying
that lonely place so far from home.
