Outside my Window


Holed up in my room

Barricaded in

Just me and my thoughts

Are enough to grin


May seem dark to you

But the moon gives glow

You don't need a door

When there's a window


The ceiling falls down

Into my bubble

Surrounding my bed

Walls become rubble


No longer inside

No longer alone

Out in the wild

All the unknown


Hums of wings I hear

Zipping past my ear


Chirps from mother birds

Precious eggs, she girds


Chuckles from creatures

Dark obscures features


Smells of burnt fire

Start to transpire


Yet no fear comes up

As I make my way

To someplace not home

A place known as stray


A bubble no more

Freedom to let roam

Earth is my answer

To where is my home

To where is my home
