I'm Going Home! ! ! Poem by Amal Alawar

I'm going back to the faraway place
Where my heart is and every loved face 💕
Where beautiful memories smell like a rose 🌹
Where doors are open and never close 🚪
Where strangers salute you and always say hi 👋
And no longer strangers when they say goodbye
I'm visiting my childhood, I'm going back in time ⏰️
My past is calling with a tingling chime
I hear an echo of my grandma's voice
I wish I can answer and have a choice
I hear the sound of pebbles under my feet
I see my friends playing in the street
I know it's memories storming my brain
But my heart feels it in every vein
I live the moment taken aback
Thinking I'm stuck in a movie track 📽
I want the past.. to become alive
I want my memories to flourish and thrive
I want to break Time.. rules and laws,
and be the Child.. that I once was
