Homesick At Home
Homesick at home
Lonely in crowds
Distracting my mind
Destroying my hope
Eager but unwilling
Idel but guilty
And somehow nostalgic
For when I used to do things right.
Like an army its neighboring land,
Despair invades the heart.
Life takes a turn
Fantasies fade away
Dreams fall apart.
All I have achieved
Was beginners' luck;
Small battles won
Before losing the war.
When did "Happy birthday"
Start sounding offensive?

If my middle-age crisis starts at 30 yo, does that mean I'll die at 60? 🤔
