Maybe the reason I could not make myself Leave bed Is less because i didnt sleep And more because of the fact That i dread going home Because home is not The walls and doors that confine me, Home is him. Home is the way he smells, the way he looks at me Home is laying on his chest Feeling his heartbeat, each of his breaths Home is his skin against mine Home is his smile, lips, eyes, face. Home is not just plaster walls that hold me in, keep me warm. Home is wherever he is.
I wrote this while i was at a family members house, a few days before returning home.
