Until the end was near, I didn't know what I would be losing,
the laughter, the smiles, the love, even the tears
that we have shared together for so very many years
are coming to an end, an end that I embrace publicly and resent
as I lay in bed contemplating my future life without this place
that I have come to love and know as home.
Who says time has to move forward without the option of a pause?
What angry, vindictive God has created time that moves slow when you hate life
and fast when you love everything around you?
I've been torn away from homes my entire life,
by family, friends and unfortunate circumstance,
and now God destroys my home with this torturous invention we call time.
