Reena, this is beautifully rendered and reflects a lot of the feelings I tried to express in my "Spaceman" story in Fault Zone: Detachment. You don't have to leave only a country to have these feelings. It can be a local culture or an area of a country where you were born and raised but which you feel separated from. Thank you.
True we don't get to go back whatsoever! Loved the metaphor of a country.
So much emotion. Love the past being analogous to a country. 🥰

Be still my beating heart! A poem so beautiful!
It's true, Reena, we all have a past but we don't have to live there. As it is, there are too many people there already.
It rings very true, and it was beautifully expressed in your poem!
