A Poem by Trisha Clark

time

Take your time

watch it go

just know--

you'll never

make it home

home

cause home's a person

not a place

it's that name

you can't erase

erase

erase those feelings

deep inside

those white elephants

you hide

hide

hide the bottle

and the pills

and the memories

they can't kill

kill

kill the guilt

and the shame

and the burden

of the blame

blame

blame the place

or the year

blame yourself--

you caused your fear

fear

but fear that's realized

is gone

cause now,

what else could go wrong?

Lovely style. Very creative. Was this your original idea? I love the following lines:

"home
cause home's a person,
not a place
it's that name
you can't erase"

Excellent.

Love,

Nihad
