I Need To Feel the Floor

========================= I need to feel the floor, I need to know the walls are sound when evening falls and darkness pounds the door I need to seal my wounds, to heal until I find when I peel back the rind, I'm real beneath the ruins I need to rest my eyes, to dream until at last the messes of my past mean less when I arise I thirst for something more but if it's to be found, first, I must find my ground I need to feel the floor =========================

I remember this one, but why? Why do you need to feel the floor?

Hi SO, I've missed you! Remember, I almost never write about myself or my experiences. This poem is for my BFF, who is something of a hoarder but recognizes her problem and wants to free herself of the clutter
