the lights go out

suddenly, no one is home

a home that once was so happy to have me, no longer holds me or my things

the lights go out

suddenly, no one is home

a home that once was safe, no longer recognizes my fear

the lights go out

suddenly, no one is home

a home that once gave me warmth, no longer supplies any heat

the lights go out

suddenly, no one is home

a home that once provided me secruity, no longer feeds me consistency

the lights go out

& suddenly I am left without a home.
