Today I found out
that you existed, I cried
because now you’re gone

Well, I didn't mean I have never felt homely anywhere in fact I consider myself extremely lucky when it comes to that knowing I have so many places and so many homes and well I TRULY believe that home is where the heart is. Ah, but what to do when the heart is in a lot of places :P HEY I just got an idea for a poem ;)
I've felt that "homely" warmth...I concentrate more on the people, though there's been two places I remember fondly. I think of the world as my home...if that makes sense. Most of my family is in Colorado which is always one place I've REALLY enjoyed though I've never lived there xD

It only means that everybody has a hometown right, you know where all their relatives live, where they were born and stuff. So the irony is that I've basically lived in my hometown VERY little as in two or three years max. So yes, the hometown doesn't REALLY give one a hometown feeling.

YES YES YES. Ahahha I suppose I just tell them just with that EXACT bit of irony the name of my hometown "Karachi" and then the number of days I've actually been there :P

You are much welcome Jo! IT IS SO CRAZY TRULY.And well, it has happened to me with many people :D I hope that the next place I go to. I find the BEST person on the first day :D *fingers crossed* and yes it was HARD but we have to move every two years. My daddy's in the army, still I can never say I get used to it. Cause truly I don't. Ever. Nor do I think I will. Anyway so I guess I've only moved around the country but yea I've moved around seven to eight times myself (approximately) ^_^

HAHHA! That was brilliant poetry. Made me think of an amazing friend I'd made when I was just about to leave this town and to think we'd both lived there ALL THAT time and never met. I hated it. I'm pretty sure you meant it to be something else entirely but I suppose thats the thing about poetry eh? :P I love this by the way!
