Home

"I know they said you can't go home again
I just had to come back one last time."

That house up there is the house that I grew up in. I lived there for 18 years. The second floor window that you see used to be my window. I miss this house more than I can say. It was my childhood palace. It looked a bit different when I grew up there, but I love the changes they've made to it. 

It's for sale again and I wish that we could buy it back. I would love to raise my children there. It has a ton of bedrooms, a giant common room upstairs that would make an awesome playroom, and a huge backyard. There is a rock island in the driveway that my imagination told me was a playhouse.

I can see my kids running around the house. I can see me baking in the kitchen, just like my mom did. 
I have fond memories of this house and I wish more than anything I could make more.

To the family that buys this house, enjoy it.
Love it as I did.

It is my palace.

"You leave home you move on and you do the best you can
I got lost in this old world and forgot who I am"
