On this journey,
on tiptoe,
I know I will slip,
but have to make this
trip, for to see
if I will please
myself.
On this journey,
I will find rough winds,
that will want to spin me
and send me to the ends,
but I must go.
On this journey
I will face many scrapes
but I'll escape
the thorns that are placed
for me alone.
On this journey
I will be scorned
but never torn
for I'll be sworn
to win
On this journey
that is life
I will live
and make the right turns
and a few wrong
but this is life
and so I must take in strife
on this journey
on my way home.

A journey home is always worth the obstacles in the path.
You've written it well.
