I fear
       her
Steps
Bouncing back
and forth

Getting stronger as they go

Fast approaching
And no place to go

She knocks the door
1 knock
2 knock
BAMMM
the tram is back
Back to rant  

My head is there
Yet it can’t be there
No,
it shouldn’t be hers

I stand up to her
I claim not to care
While my life dares
To get threatened away

No pain, no tears, no showing fears
As my life resumes with college peers

Back I go to no place to go
With hidden doors and unlocked ******
With no love, with no one to hold

A single piece of who I’ve become,
Belongs no where near this “home”
        
          Sorry mom,
I warned you, Now I’ve got to go.

Now is my time to go
