I have traveled thousands of miles to see my home.
5,295 miles.
8,521 kilometers.
Familiar faces, food, streets, buildings,
music, expressions, language, accent, slang,
Familiar life.
Nevertheless, I left.
So I am sorry.
I do not know your pledge of allegiance,
Or your national anthem.
I cannot name your twenty-three provinces.
Or the number of amendments in your constitution.
I cannot speak every single word with confidence.
But one day, I will.
