Haven

by fsyousaf

One after the other I am abandoned; Reminiscing the same movements My father exhibited when He wanted to start anew. The human body is made up Of skin and bones, Blood gushing through veins Repeatedly, a job done nearly sixty times a minute. And yet we are more than just that. I am a shell of my former self, My passion has dwindled, And so has my own will to live. I am not the same person who fell in love with this life, Innocently calling it mine. My personality flees by the danger I convince myself that I am in. Hopping on trains and planes, Cars and even bikes. They flee and do not intend to return. I am hollow, A former shell of who I used to be. And while emotions are difficult to come by, I only hope they come back to their motherland, Knowing that it is safe once again.
