because home was no where
the saying 'home is where you make it' had never been proven so wrong as it had in this moment. this exact second.
you were wrong.
you didn't need them.
this
that
all of the above
all i needed was the dark
4 white walls and a light switch that was always in the off position.
in fact, it didn't even need the option of being able to turn on.
no door. no window.
that was comfort
that was love
that was home
in the corner was a chair with a rope around it.
taunting you
laughing at you, and all of the things you could never be, and the dreams and goals you would never reach.
