The window in my new room
haunts me
Taunts me
Wanting me to look outside
and appreciate my newfound home
But this “home”
Isn't the home I want to embrace
The sunshine
The warmth
The laughter
It's all something
that I want to return my life to
Not the sidewalk
The dull sky
The endless Silence
The window is looking at me
Waiting to find light in the darkness
Even when the light I once felt
Has turned to darkness
