My personal space
My home for the last several years
I’m leaving a dream
A tear in a seam
Left loose
It’s come undone
The paintings on these walls
Are images of battle
My soul wounded in struggle
I’ve died and lived through
I’m leaving my quiet
My cave near the fire
The illusion and desire
To Love all that is you
Winter approaches
Silencing me gently
Offering her womb
A safe earth to dream
I’m leaving this place
This private little space
For the warmth
Of a shelter unseen
I remain a current in the Ocean,
Lesley
