Home is where the heart is....I left my heart with you

No words are spoken,
Choking back tears,
Your hug is a token,
Of our friendship through all these years,

I turn my back,
And head to the door,
I steal a glance,
And I feel unsure

I don't want to leave,
My home is here,
I don't want you to grieve,
I don't want to disappear

You promise that I won't be forgotten,
I wipe my tears,
You always held my hand,
And fought away my fears.

You are my present,
I will be your past,
I fear my future,
I pray that this moment will last

One final goodbye,
My best effort not to cry,
But even though we are miles apart,
You always remain in my heart.

They say home is where the heart is,
I left my heart with you,
I'm never really home,
Unless I'm near you.
