And with just one little word, or was it a few? Warmth and balminess became ice & wisps of cold. Laughs became little sobs; gasping for air for all the wrong reasons. A home does not seem quite *like it.* It feels like unravelled ribbons. Painted grey & blue hearts. Tears on dinner plates. Cold tea staining raw, chapped lips. Your breaths merely touching your bare ribcage. Empty, emptiness simply seep into your veins, the spaces in your skin, then the ones in your heart and in the very words you speak. I cannot close my tired, tired lids over it.

Half of Home?
And with just one little word, or was it a few? Warmth and balminess became ice & wisps of cold. Laughs became little sobs; gasping for air for all the wrong reasons. A home does not seem quite *like it.* It feels like unravelled ribbons. Painted grey & blue hearts. Tears on dinner plates. Cold tea staining raw, chapped lips. Your breaths merely touching your bare ribcage. Empty, emptiness simply seep into your veins, the spaces in your skin, then the ones in your heart and in the very words you speak. I cannot close my tired, tired lids over it.
