Homesick by ~kenlybop:iconkenlybop:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Family Life > Open


As I sit here and ponder,
I have to stop and wonder.
Am I as grown up as I thought?


I thought I could make it.
I thought I didn't need you,
Didn't need you close to me.


As I sit here and cry,
I understand just why
I was as wrong as ever.


I love you and miss you
More now than ever before.
I never thought I could be so wrong.


In the dark and quiet
I've no need to deny it.
Inside I'm still a little girl.


Little girls need their mommies
and their daddies all the same.
Being so far away...


I have no one but myself to blame.


T.L.H.  3*4*9

Author's Comments

We moved here in November. It's now March. It's been 5 months that I've been away from my family. The homesickness hasn't been as bad as this since we moved. If it weren't 4:30 in the morning, I'd call just to hear their voices...

I sat here and cried like a blubbering idiot for 45 minutes... Harder than I have in a long time.

I know a lot of people would tell me to grow up and stop acting like such a baby, but... in short... I want my mom...

Np! I totally understand that, but not all writing has to come out of beautiful/good moments to be beautiful and poignant. :)

none of my poetry comes out of good times. so that's why it's all rather morbid and depressing.

That's ok though. Maybe we should put them together, all in a book, get it published and you could become the next Poe! -giggles-
