In a world of second-guessing
uncertainty
your eyes, darkened by shadows, peer out
at a barely-recognizable homeland
is it really a home?
trust is torn apart by claws of hatred and
thrown among the despairing—
there is no welcome mat here
There is only fear
a thick slime left behind in the footprints of our shadows
a smell thick enough to taste
an orange light penetrating our dreams
But keep your heart with me
and I’ll try to be your refuge
you can hear the birdsong where I cannot
and it’s because of you
that I can keep smiling
