When I left

When I left (by Ahmad Babar):
The rooms feel so warm
Just like they did when I left
The house still has it's charm
Just like it did when I left
The plants still smile at me
Just like they did when I left
The chandelier still lighten ups the hall
Just like it did when I left
The floors still feel cold to my bare feet
Just like they did when I left
The chimes' music is still sweet
Just like it was when I left
The faces in those pictures smile again
Just like they did when I left
The broken mirror still shows two sides of me
Just like it did when I left
The old oak table still stands strong
Just like it did when I left
My room chair still squeaks
Just like it did when I left
The toys still stand lined up in the corner
Just like they did when I left
A tear rolls down my cheek
Just like it did on the day I left
Nothing seems to have changed
From the day when I left
But there is something missing
That I had on the day when I left
This place is now just a house
Unlike the Home it was when I left
