This "home"

They say I will be good here in this HOME. this place.this building of shame They smile and joke with or around me in this unsafe haven. this dwelling. this menage of "who to blame" They get too crazy and obscene altogether in this lame abode. this domicile. this unruly residence of complete sadness They are too comfortable and lazy in this obsolete lodging. this room and that room. this habitation of unnecessary badness They eat so aimlessly so unsharing in this faulty hovel. this haunting hole. this soul binding burrow of my harbored pain They are not concerned much in this open accomodation. this sickness of a roof over my head. this torturing casa of constant restrain They..as in my fellow people who say they are my "friend" in this HOME..my sleeping chambers to be HERE..is as if i'm waiting for my dismal end.. I must depart and leave this HOME this unreal shell of ones push to condescend I must Break away from this HOME..this casting of hate I must... I must...before its too late.

The raw emotions are very well displayed within the imagery that flows in lines of this read. One can sense the despair and the need to break free from it all... Very deep writing Michelle, I hope that you find the peace you seek. Thank you for sharing the read. God's Love and Many Blessings, Always, Adell
