Have you ever been homesick for a place you've never been?
Somewhere you've only seen through the wrong side of a lense?
Or maybe heard it talked about through friends of friends of friends?
Have you ever been homesick for a place your soul longs to be?
A place you've never seen except through the screen of your tv?
With mountains and wilds and rivers and things better left unseen?
Have you ever longed to go there by foot or plane or car?
To let your feet touch the soil and finally feel whole?
To get married, raise a family, and someday perhaps grow old?
Have you ever been homesick for towering trees that sway?
Have you ever felt the longing that grows stronger day by day?
The need to run along the trails and paths as oh so many before?
To plant your feet and feel the heat of the sun on every pore?
Have you ever felt homesick for somewhere far away?
Somewhere miles and miles from where you stay?
Have you ever felt homesick for a home you've never known?
A home you have only had looking through the screen of your phone?
A live you have lived over and over again.
So tell me are you homesick for a place you've never been?
I am not a poet by any means but I have a lot of thought right now and the words began to pour and wouldn't stop so... yeah.
