Something called home
Raluca 2000 (Bucharest)
ndless tapping on the glass,
On your knees down in the grass.
Watching something far away.
Is it real? we'll find a way .
Losing my mind on sight,
Making a fuss because you're right,
Crying for everything.
I don't need help,i need awakening .
People laughing at your jokes;
Giggling at something worse;
Screaming when u say the truth.
Why are they scared?
I thought it was cute.
I'll make an excuse to leave;
I'll somehow make you believe,
It's your fault I left again.
There's blood dripping from your chain.
Blood that s been there forever,
You've been looking for a shelter.
That s where you were looking then,
Finding home everywhere.
About this poem
There are a lot of way to view these lines. The words are trying to express someone searching for a house and going crazy trying to see it a home. It's somehow the worst version of poetry. It's beautifully ugly.
