Home Poem by Shelly Price

With wild anticipation,
heart beating,
uncontrolled,
each breath filled with purpose,
each second,
one closer,
and then...
everything is clear,
wrapped in a cocoon.
A safe,
secure place,
to feel whole,
complete,
undeniably real,
no worries.
Life a mysterious puzzle,
of pieces...
pieced together,
during moments
of clarity...
moments where
the rest of the world
doesn't exist.
Inside the haven,
that is wrapped
around me,
surrounding my being,
tucked in,
without fear,
naked,
exposed to truth,
to trust,
be loved,
accepted as me..
I am home,
always,
when you hold me
in your arms.
