their eyes, red and swollen In the corner of this house, there is deafening silence screamed by my father's mind And my body shakes as if riding a bus through a bumpy road, I'm numb enough but i still know We have different monsters We face each day, we don't know if we're lucky that we survived I don't know where their minds are, and I'm willing to hide behind the ignorance of this war
Yes, this is the kind of home I return to Maybe that's what established the bliss of not knowing
Maybe I'm starting to consider not coming "home". 8/19/18
