Homeward bound

One more day to spend now here
No more will I have to fear
No more struggling, no more hate
Going home is in my fate
Home is where the heart does swell
But the stories do I tell?
Or climb upon that plane and go
Never will my good friends know
Four years spent to start new life
Slaughtered with a bludgeoned knife
Heart so broken, spirit torn
My life about to be reborn
Soul destroyed and lessons learnt
Fingers been extremely burnt
Yes tomorrow, home I fly
This place? I won't say goodbye
Healing time inside and out
I will heal without a doubt
One thing I will say from here
I've learnt with stress I now can bare
Please be kind and don't hurt others
Hug your mums and dads and brothers
Aussie, now I say farewell
When home, the stories I will tell
Of how you treat your neighbours close
smack in the face by a closest host
Kiwis don't you think your safe
Stay at hope and keep your faith
Hurt yourself, your on your own
No one wants to hear you moan
You'll get nothing if your hurt
Treated worse than smelling dirt
Legislation? What a crock
Beat your head against a rock
No one cares or gives a dam
God help if your in a jam
Please don't think your safe when here
The grief you get, too much to bare.
