Can I go back?


I wake up from a place I love. There's no deny that this is where I want to be. Can I go back? I'm there when I feel broken by the society we have now. Looking around for that one place I feel at home. Can I go back? The sun goes from sunrise to sunset. I walk among people that don't understand. Can I go back? I close my eyes and I can see it. I see what's missing in my day, but then my eyes open. Can I go back? A tear falls from my eyes once no one can see. I pull out that one picture that gets me sad and happy all at once. Can I go back? I miss you, but I can't go back.....
