Finding Home
Once a long time ago
a small girl went to hide
safely away in the corners of her mind
away from all the pain
away from all the hurt
Only one day she forgot her way home
suddenly afraid of the dark corners of her mind
she ran losing herself quickly throughout the maze
what dangers lay hidden quietly waiting
untouched, unhindered
Voices surrounded her, was everyone here
had someone found her, she shouldn't have hid
closing her eyes, she slowly turned around
a small smiling face, standing slightly behind her
slowly without talking she held out her hands
and together they turned towards an open door
Stepping into the room
there were so many other people
all different ages and even guys too
wondering where they had come from
not realizing they were all a part of her
they were all very friendly and all very different
Faintly a voice could be heard
getting louder and closer, calling her
afraid, but looking back out the door
she turned to go, not wanting her new friends to know
as she left, the voices filled her head again
reassuring they would be here when needed
always and forever
calmly she left her new friends
heading towards her home, her real home
all the while knowing that safely hidden
in the farthest corners of her mind
her real family patiently waited
for her return
