Earlier I walked back into the house I live in
And for a few moments
it was like I was standing in someone else’s home
And I felt I was standing in a place that I didn’t understand
that felt that little bit odd
and I sighed and felt out of place
wandering ..
thinking
I feel so out of place
feel like I’ve lost something
missing something
but they wernt there
missing people
but they wernt there
missing a feeling of feeling
‘ at home

- Comment from author about the poem: Sounds odd I know but every now and then when I’m here .. I still get that feeling of .. but this doesn’t feel like home .. maybe it’s me missing parts of the nice things about where I used to live .. maybe it’s me missing my sister .. maybe it’s my dissociation .. it’s like i was standing there and something in me felt wrong \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Oh, please, what a tremendous and painful feeling it seems to lose part of your soul in this farewell. I enjoyed it very much. Thank you for sharing it. Best regards.
Thankyou )) it’s just how I feel sometimes .. as if I’m on the outside looking in .. sometimes can struggle with feelin disconnected from myself and when I’m missing people aswell ( I guess that just makes me feel a little sad
Odd how you mention the word ‘ soul ‘ because actually that’s how my soul feels sometimes .. it just feels sad for some reason
Thanks for the kind comment
You're welcome, it's only natural that you feel that way, and it's printed beautifully. Congratulations! Greetings.

You are very welcome
A poem that to me evokes feelings of something out of place a disassociation from what is familiar and feeling of strangeness to all that is around. Well written.
Thankyou very much )) yes to be honest I think it is partly my dissociation that makes me feel like that . And yes it can cause feelings of things feeling ‘ strange ‘ sometimes
But yeah was just a sad lonely confused feeling in me earlier .
Thankyou very much
I am sure your home is wonderful Yellow Rose and all will be well.

Having read both your poem and note, oh, not odd at all—I’ve felt that same haunting dislocation, like the walls haven’t quite accepted me yet, or maybe it’s the self that hasn’t settled. The way you frame that sensation here is beautifully gentle and raw. It’s not just about a place, but the people and feelings that made it home. Thank you for sharing this part of yourself, my dear friend. 🌹👏
Thankyou very much ))
Yes , sometimes I feel that way . Maybe it was my dissociation making me also feeling distant from people and things .. or maybe I didn’t feel at home In myself .. think part of me misses my old home ( sometimes . )
Probably a mixture of things which makes me feel like this
It’s just like feeling out of place ( somehow ) I guess
The people are nice here tho..
Sometimes , yeah .. Somethjng just doesn’t feel right
Thankyou 🙂
