Finding My Way Home... Poem by Renee Martin

It hurts to be alone
In this place that I call home
But it heals me in some way
knowing that this is not a mistake

Everything has fallen apart
and nothing can be forgotten
I must move on someway
And follow this broken heart

I will follow the impossible roads
And they will take me places
Take me through more pain and struggles
But eventually take me home

THe memories will fade away
And all that I expected from you
Everything will be gone
Everything that we knew

Time for me to let go
Go out in this world on my own
Show everyone that doubts me
That I can do this alone

Silence is very bittersweet
It builds me up yet over and over again
But I will face this world
And I will not fall down

No one will ever understand
I gave and gave until it all fell apart
I tried to find what I was looking for
But here there is nothing more

When I'm out there all alone
Dark clouds surrounding me
Rainfalls every time I turn around
I know I will eventually find my way home

To feel myself coming back to life
To know who I truly am
To leave this all behind me
For my heart to love and finally be found
