Things I want to come home to after a long day at work:

Arms that hold and remind me that exhaustion is only temporary

Soul food, to stop the starvation that eats at my insides and reminds me I am too skinny to miss a meal

A comfortable bed that envelopes and introduces me to a world of dreams, where anything is possible,
Including leaving all that I've ever known and becoming someone entirely different

A good book that helps me escape reality with characters that feel more like family, than my actual real ones

Coffee. (Enough said)

A view that speaks to me about how the world is a beautiful place if only we stop and appreciate it

Myself, in the comfort of my own privacy. Free to let loose all the crazy that has been shoved down due to the fear of being judged

Since I had to lock her at home, away from the world, making sure no one saw my heart or any sign of emotion for fear that they'd take advantage of the sensitivity that is, Myself.
I'd like to come home to myself and let her know that it'll all be okay
