One of the hardest things
Is to Leave a desired reality
For one more painful.
You accuse people of leaving
Only to do the same.

One of the hardest things
Is leaving the one person
Who helps make you human,
Only to lose the stability.
For things to change.

What you don't expect is
Spending full days with his
Parents, only to feel welcomed
For just a week. Leaving is
Harder when you leave.

Cathy and Scott, thank you.
Thank you Scarlet and Pip.
Most of all though,
Thank you for allowing me to
Be a tourist in my own country.
