June Theme: HOMESICK

​Phone Home 

​

Sick of being away from home
Sick from my new home
Home filled with mould
Sick of being alone 
Home sick
My head is sick
Sick of lying in bed 
Home but sick instead 
Sick of the home in my head 
Home is where my heart isn’t sick
Sick and tired I’ll write a poem
Home and sick but not alone
Home is sick but it’s home
I'm home and still sick
Stuck being home
Stuck being still
So I’ll call home 
Give home a phone
Check if home is home
Make sure home isn’t sick

​

When will this new home stick?
