Longing for belonging

Longing for belonging Right past the trees That surround my heart

Listening to the voices Laughing near by Ancient streams of Sorrow Pulsate in And out of my vision Of sight

And I am slowly Overtaken by the Beauty of the ease At which nature Fills every space and nook Even my broken soul

Shredding me foolishly Once more dragging My tender meat across The damp forest floor

At an ancle I can’t quite comprehend

At some point The loneliness stumbles

I cry but not For help

I scream but But not out of fear

I endure but Only out of spite

Waiting for the coming of dusk tweaks scratch my surface

reality becomes nothing More than a sound a bubble ready to pop at the slightest touch

Like my thick inked Skin covered in the Riddles I so desperately Wish someone Would want to uncover

Uproot me finally Chop me up And forcefully Carry me home

The meaning of it all Gloriously revealed

In the flames of her fire
