Duty

1, 2, 3
Clicking my heels
Wishing I were home

As I open my eyes
Everything is as it were
Why isn’t it working
I just want to go home

Looking upon my shoes
I guess they’re not like Dorothy’s
Believing in them isn’t enough

My heart doesn’t belong
I have no place to hide
Running only delays what’s to come

I have no corner
To call me own
Only duty gives me the strength
To crawl ahead

Author notes

I have tried clicking my heels and sorry to say it didn't work for me. I only hope it can work for you.
