Far Away From Home
There are professions by all means
When your life is at constant risk
But, they are so much committed
And this makes them not to be defeated
Defeated by the fear to get sick
By the distance from their loved ones
When solitude is grabbed like a tick
Temptations threaten what you want
You want to go back home so soon
To every one meaningful to you
But money talks in a beating room
How can you quit what you need to survive though?
Family calls, complaints and much more
Far from those loved ones
Close to colleagues and a boss
Or you might be that boss someone wants
Which profession are you gonna choose?
One to expand your horizons?
One that limits yourself, as doomed?
Whatever you do, love it, or you' ll pay an endless ransom.
