A piece of me

I miss you so much that I don’t know what to do with myself.  You did something to be, ancient fatherland.  I belonged among your people more than I have ever belonged here. 

My white skin, my brown hair, my brown eyes.  That means nothing here.  Nothing.

I loved you guys so much.  Why or how I do not know.  I still love you!  I scream out to you, and you cannot hear me.   

I cry sometimes because I am in so much pain.  And nobody understands.  I just continue to drown in this sea of ignorance.
