Be fast, but quiet
Not a whisper, not a sound
Listen to me, hold my hand
And walk
Walk from here
This once a home, this once a country
This once a dome
Leave it
Leave it all behind
The worldly things that bind us to
This once a home, this once a country
This once a dome of light
Say goodbye
For you will not return
You will not look back
You will not be sad
It is not for you
This once a home
Wrapped in the embrace of my love
You will be warm without its sun
You will not miss it.

brilliant... and moving.
... but don't start crying at work!

This is lovely.... moving..... I think of your family saying goodbye to your homeland. It draws me in and then ends on a surprise, kind of positive note of affirmation. Nice touch. Interesting cadence as well.
