Leaving Home Poem by Phil Soar

Leaving Home



Leaving home was not a trial for me
I couldn't wait and felt that I was free
Yet I returned when things became to much
When life alone became somewhat of a crutch

I thought that I could manage on my own
I thought I'd outlived home and sought to roam
How wrong I was to leave the very heart of me?
Just because I thought that it would set me free
