Quiero

I want

a place of my own.

Keys in a dish

on a wooden table

bamboo racks

in the bathroom.

Mismatched chairs

in the bright yellow kitchen

handmade blankets

thrown across the couch.


I want

a place where I feel safe

where I can sing

and dance

 and trip and not have someone laugh at me.


I want

and it aches

I want

and it hurts

I want

but I have to wait.
