HEALING AT HOME

I go home to heal. 

I prepare to leave home to head home to heal. 

Which is to say I am always healing.

I drift between places I am hesitant to call mine

and spaces that embrace me with strength. 

I have to heal from saying goodbye to home.

I have to heal from saying goodbye to my people.

Which is to say I am always in need of healing.

Walking away from love

into love

and remembering that it is all love.
