Not a Friendly Place

You know,

home is supposed to be a warm and friendly place.

It's supposed to be the place where you always feel safe.

It's supposed to be a place where you aren't judged,

ridiculed,

or shamed.

Not my home.

I can be flying on cloud nine,

with music in my heart and in my eyes,

but as soon as I cross the threshold--

I feel the weight settle on my shoulders again.

I hear the echoes of secret tears,

hate,

fighting,

and general misery bombard my mind with glass.

I hate this place.

I can't wait to leave.
