To tell you the truth
I have no hometown
There used to be one
My heaven on earth
A safe cocoon
A warm embrace
I grew up assimilating
It's different vibes
Never knew that life
Also has a flip side
Which revealed itself
When I left it's side.
I went to it again and again
To recover lost treasures
And be my old self again
Like all good things
This too came to an end.
What is a hometown
without a home
And what is a home
Without those loving souls
What used to be my hometown
Is now a deserted town.
