do you even understand
what it's like to go home
and have nothing?
to walk into your house
alone
and see that there is no one
at the door
or any family invading
everything you've done that day
and that at night
when you turn out all the lights
the only greeting you receive
is from the darkness
telling you to be fearful
of the unknown.
a swift kiss from the air
speaks you wont be left alone tonight
and again
there is nothing i can do
to stop the scarcity of company
and to accept
this distance
is the only thing i must realize
while being intoxicated by
my fierce surroundings.
