Kansas City can't be that bad,
1000 miles isn't really far,
it would take me about an hour
to pack my life into my car

more opportunity, better pay,
I'd break out of this prison,
though I may need to sleep in my car
until the setting sun has risen

I may get lost and lonely
and feel like letting go,
Kansas City can't be that bad...
better than here, I know.

Still, I'll be cursing the night
passing on so slow

and the cross I bear will weigh a ton-
you know I'll be praying for the sun.

Home might be where the heart is, then it is nice also to make the heart home

Then that was not my original thought after reading your poem, but came to me just now in writing this.

Good on you, you're expressing yourself well

Then I get the impression there is more than one Kansas City in this world

a poet who cares

Wherever you go Dixie gal..
you know I hold you close to my heart.
Luv, Nancy

For it was not into my ear you whispered
But into my heart..
It was not my lips you kissed
But my soul.

Life is full of decisions, which will open and shut doors for the future can drasticly affect the present. May your decisions be the right ones for you that may lead to happiness and fulfillment.

They say a change is as good as a holiday Dixie, change if you must but find yourself first and then your happiness. Take care dear friend and be well.

There is this yearning for new shores, dear Dixie ... and you are a strong woman, you can do what your heart suggests.

Adventurous write!
