Far, far away,

From home and from beloved,

Roots erased,

Now pathetically jaded.


Of what was once of fascinating fascination,

Now frivolously fractured,

Flimsily faltered,

False faith,

Facilely faded.


A wide world,

Countless possibilities,

Here and there,

Anywhere and everywhere,

Some close, many far.


But be rid not of your own identity,

Evicted out of your true home,

For a changing world doesn't always revolve around, 

Evolving things, new opportunities, and exploring it all round.


A long time spent away from home,

But some who long,

They discover that the place they've long endeavored, 

Is truly nearer than prior speculation.


Far away from home,

Yet close to one's heart,

The home that's been constantly searched for,

Can actually also be a feeling, thing, person, or experience,

So when you're away, take your home with you.
