HOMEBOUND

The road is long, the journey tiresome

But home is where I long to be

Amidst familiar faces and all that’s common

I yearn to blend, connect and fit, alas!

Enslaved in an alien body

Forced to live as such

With desires, emotions and human sentiments

Reflect things of a lesser being

A creature with flaws

An entity with expiration

A life exhaling daily-end

An essence of dysfunction

My heart languish after heavenly home

The incorruptible body promised

The imperishable TRUTH that IS

The indispensable YOU that’s absolute, I wait
