Home To Stay Poem by Eloida Capuno

Home To Stay

Rating: 5.0


He has gone far
from where he has been
With a sack full of hopes
and a suitcase of dreams
He went to where
others won't dare

Four decades it was
of struggles on end
Though stakes are high
he gambled for a win
But luck to him was
not a friend
His loss outweighed
a handful of gain

Now he is back
to the place he was born
Battle-scarred, so forlorn
the game of life he lost
No family, friends or home
only a space six feet under
to rest his weary soul
