GOODBYE TO HOME, HELLO

I went away today,
Sitting in another place
Living in another time
Sensing all the things I sensed
So many years ago
I was young and growing old.
Fearing many things
But most of all to share my fears
With others who I knew
I wondered if they cared back then,
Or if they care today.
I came back home,
I hope that I can stay.
