Home is Lost
Home is lost, faded, gone.
I’m a perpetual guest, polite and alone
Old bonds tighten, secure and strong.
How I’d sought them, forged them,
fiercely shunning uncertainty.
The castle is now a keep,
with no key.
A window looks out to sea,
beckoning and holding
treasures unknown.
I’m a perpetual guest, polite and alone
Old bonds tighten, secure and strong.
How I’d sought them, forged them,
fiercely shunning uncertainty.
The castle is now a keep,
with no key.
A window looks out to sea,
beckoning and holding
treasures unknown.

I love how discretely powerful it is.
Wonderful stanza:
Old bonds tighten, secure and strong.
How I’d sought them, forged them,
fiercely shunning uncertainty.
Well written.

I think this is quite simply...damn near perfect. The only thing that stops me as I read this 5 times in a row is this part.
Old bonds tighten, secure and strong.

I love this but I think there could be something else after 'uncertainty'....something that rhymes with 'strong' or ya know...gets close to rhyming enough to kind of complete the verse.
But completely badass just as it is ;)

I fell in love with ' A perpetual guest, polite and alone'
You convinced me I can leave my poems short :)
