Away from home.
A place where comfort is.
People drifting all alone...
To gather bits and pieces.
Away from home...
Roaming with no one to telephone.
Or share secrets with in whispered tones.
No one there to wet sheets,
Like beasts in heat moaning!
Tears fall and disappear,
Staring from smudged and smeared windows.
Lonely nights spent in a quiet atmosphere.
And watching the moonlight cast passing shadows!
Unfamiliar...
Yet so near to provoke and conjure fear.
Away from home.
Deep in captivity!
An activity no one hears.
And it is clear...
This remains encompassed!

Anxiety haunts this appealing piece about the overwhelming feelings of imprisonment associated with homesickness. A strongly dramatic theme which takes this reader back to childhood. Excellent. love, Allie xxxx
