I Feel Like An Outsider

I Just Want To Go Home

By: swordsaint
Written on August 29th, 2011
I'm locked in this human skin that is entirely alien to me...
We're not of the same species. I belong nowhere on this pitiful ball of mud and rock hurtling towards it's doom.
Oh there is beauty here, don't get me wrong. But it is not meant for my eyes to see, my ears to hear or my hands to touch.
It only makes me crave something I've never seen, but my soul or whatever must have and it wants it back.

I am trapped among you, the perpetual stranger...
I am stuck in a body that is not mine, in a place that is not home.
And the worse part is. I know it.
And I want to go home...
But I don't know where that is.
Or how to get there...

    I know what you mean, I feel the same many times. And whenever I feel the urge or better say the longing to be where it is that I really belong I find myself a quiet place somewhere outside where I’m all alone, I look up into the sky (whether day or night) close my eyes and simply let go of everything that connects me to this world, I literally lose myself within reality; and when I return, it doesn’t necessarily feel a lot better, but it is enough to carrier on until the next time. I don’t know if this makes sense or helps any? ^_-
