I Love This Place

I love this place, just not the road I’ve taken

I might take the long route, feels better that way

I have been taught

bushes and bumps comes along with it

then, I stumble, a step or two

by a step or two I mean maybe a couple more to boot

I upsurged a bit, not almost there i know

but I might take the wrong turn, feels better that way

found blight here, blessed me with the light as well

taught me to let go, there’s no place like home

I belong to the warmth of the sheets my mother folded,

not the vicious hand I led myself to.

but I might perceive I made it here because of that one wrong turn,

the road I never wanted to take,

the longest route with all the bulges I leave behind

I might wanna stay here for a while, just feels better this way.
