Comments : Not as far as you think

    I love how I can relate to this, I've moved around way too much in my lifetime and whenever I move back or even extended visit places I'm carried away in the paths I traveled with specific people and it is so beautiful it hurts or it stings so much all I can do is smile that we had moments that powerful - and I think you captured that effortlessly here.

    The only suggestion I have is maybe your format could use a little bit of restructuring because the longer lines messed with the interesting and well working flow you had at first.

      Sometimes it's those smallest moments, the ones that being back so many powerful emotions in the best of ways, that help us remember who we are and how far we have come.
      Even when those memories make me sad I smile, because I remember loving every minute of them.
      And I'll see if I can't reconstruct the ending.

    I had similar feelings returning home after 5 years living 360. I didn't want to as my home town has too many ghosts.

    However finances and the difference in property prices between north and south made it necessary.

    A very relatable poem.
