the arms & eyes that feel like home

Marlaina Kent

never one particular place,

nor a slab of concrete,

or four painted tope walls.

not a kitchen or an island counter top.

no, home for me was never a particular place.

this probably sounds sad;

another broken childhood,

probably accompanied by a million others,

but it's not.

home is the arms that made it all make sense.

family,

that wasn't always blood.

where i found stability, laughter and my soul,

and the person i always wanted to be.

and now,

in his eyes,

i feel that same stillness,

and i see those four painted walls,

with green chairs and a record room,

and it looks like a home.
