Poem : No place like home……

~Rajan Poudel~

Struggling to make my living back home
I came to this country of unknown
Carrying hopes and dreams of my own
I thought life would be better here but I was wrong!
Now I have realized, this place is worse than hell
Reminds me of homeland, ever and ever again
No friends to share my sorrows and no one to have fun
Here in this rotten land my life has begun

I drain from work everyday and night
I see darkness in the foresight
I wonder where I have come
Now I understand that I was definitely wrong!
I miss my family and friends
I miss the celebrations and scenes
Villages, mountains and greens
Which, here are nowhere to be seen
That’s it! I have had enough
It is time to make the decision
Leave this country and return to the nation
Where I want to lay my foundation…….
