Leaving everything behind

And he glanced once more,

to the now closed door,

the door he once welcomed,

inside warmth feelings he felt,

his heart used to melt,

and now?

He is leaving everything behind,

what is that lone man to find?

Destiny torn,

a new baby born,

Sadness inside,

tears that are running,

there is nothing more that he can hide,

And when he looked towards the white reflection,

on that new door that once was his,

he imagined that he had to leave all,

and what is it really that he's going to miss?

Is it the days not lived?

Or the words not said?

Is it the sunsets not seen,

or what made him glad?

Is it the heart beating,

or the neighbors' noise,

He left the keys inside,

for he had no other choice,

But he had to,

yes,

just had to let go,

and he is now praying that all the sadness,

he will also leave behind,

of what was once known,

and now,

just now,

is making him blind,

for he is leaving home,

now house,

he is leaving,

everything behind.
