The center of square used to be a loving home.
When something called my name, I finally hit the long road.

Where did he go ? How long has he been gone ?
I don't know, only that his eyes were closed.

Familar places and all the people seem to know my name.
The bright sunlight warms of comfort and peace.

Why did he have to leave ? What was the reason ?
I don't know, only that he left in silence.

Without a word, I was gone, like a feather in the wind, like leaves in winter, like ice in summer.

Who was he ? It seems like we hardly got to know him.
I don't know, only that it was good that he found his place at the end of the long road.

Where am I ?
