5 Hours Away

I prepare for the beginning
Because I know,
The end is inevitable...

I get my clothes packed,
My little belongings,
Showered, dressed..
2 bags full,
Plus my small one.
Shoes on and tied,
Ready to walk out the door
...Physically...

It's not the car ride I dread.
Not the 5 hour drive.
Chance of leg cramps,
Chance of hunger on the way,
It's not my parents argueings,
And it's not worrying
For when I get there...

I'm happy to see everyone.
I'm happy to see you,
I am...

But an end to this stay.
The end to this stay
Is inevitable...

And that, perhaps,
Is what I dread.

Coming back
To the place
That is suppose to be
But
Doesn't feel like
...Home...
