Safe home my home where I'm free independent bird can fly hither to thither whenever I want wherever, can speak, can write, can eye contact, can live, can sleep............ But there I've seen the safe home where freedom in solid doom where independence in cruel chain where a woman was obliged to live for safety from toxic paws of independent criminals ! -February 11, 2020 Chattogram
