Forever Been

It wasn't that I was heavier in weight

just heavier in baggage

flying over the memories of old and new

landing onto the ground I was born 

I'm a different soul now

after all

nobody can go through life

without physical and mental change

that's just math? 

I've learnt a lot in the time I've been away 

like every soul we grow 

we learn we feel with each emotion

whether it be grief or happiness 

but once again my heart strings

have tugged and eventually won 

pulling me over the line and onto home soil

what a wonderful feeling

I start my new journey 

no disco's not many night caps at the pub 

definitely no karaoke, or maybe just one?

a special time capsule that once was…

and at the end? 

what will be, will be

and I will always be me.
