Feeling of home

Caring dove

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

                  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.

                  • Caring dove

                    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

                    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 🙂
