My home is no more


My home is no more
What's worse is that I have
forgotten how to build it again
I have been under people's roof for too long 
The cold air shivers my tiresome soul

My home is no more
I don't sense belongingness 
The unfamiliar scent is sickening my mind
I am an alien
Never have been in right pace
Always have been out of place 

My home is no more
No more twirling around 
No more sun peeking through the window, 
Kissing my apple cheeks and
Merrily dancing till our legs collapse 

My home is no more
No more for anyone 
The warmth died out and
My soul had fallen into slumber
As quiet as the corpse 
I am an empty vessel
Wandered and will wander
Till I recall how to build my home again
