doing hard time

everyone needs a home.

a place of rest.
an island to go to,

a place without bars,
or wire,
or the dread of no hope.

to have a bed. a chair, books.
a quiet room

all your own, a refuge

to regroup, repair.

I was without joy for
over a year, seems so
much longer,

that time behind the wall
of dead love.

but now it's back,
there's peace, there's
joy, there's no longer

abuse or fear.

no more of that.
