Leaving Home
This has been seen coming,
I've known this would come,
But now that's it's here,
I find myself eager,
Eager to be under way,
Yet I'm stuck here,
Waiting for the bridges,
One to be lowered,
Many to be burned,
I will leave behind,
Beloved friend,
Many memories,
My childhood,
All I have known and cared for,
Yet I don't feel connected to it,
Not to the home,
Only to the few people,
I feel no remorse,
No crushing sadness,
Soon, I will say my goodbyes,
Soon, I will burn away the taint,
Soon, I will be leaving home.
Powerful and strong hopeful
Powerful and strong hopeful looking forward leaving behind the ashes of youth. I really enjoyed your poem and the way you strung the words together. Beautiful. Thanks SS
