One-room HomeA Poem by Luxe
In my mind
There is a home And in this home There are floral curtains That shade the room from The lack of sunlight outside The floors are eroded and masked with dust Minus the one trail leading from my bed to the window That over looks the rocky cliffs and shores ahead My mattress is ancient And only provides enough support to hold me together at the seams So I can't stand up to long Or I'll fall apart like a Jenga puzzle My home is one room One room one being My dear Xavier My dear Josie Or whomever you're made out to be My home is the fail of a mother I've become To even the smallest fragment of existence And the one thing truly in my possession My home is marked by a mailbox That echo's the sounds of the wind In a eerie but quite beautiful way This is the music that travels through The over grown shrubbery And into my glasses of wine This is the home I destroyed Because he chose to rob me of it This is the home that's up for sale To the highest bidder This is the home that is now empty By the hand of his lust and selfishness In my mind There's a home This home has floral curtains And a glass of warm milk sitting on the night stand This home has lullaby's This home has "I love you"'s This home has motherhood and strength This home is for you and I, darling. © 2015 Luxe |
