Five Minutes From Home

Returning to comfort

Returning dismay

Right into my heart

A negative space

Is this what I've wanted

Or should I march on?

Stuck in memory

Where did it go wrong?

Five minutes from home

And I can but sigh

Because though I feel happy

My heart feels a lie

A lie about comfort

A lie knowing truth

Because what is comfort?

When I don't have you
