Home
I sigh quietly in relief
When I rush
Toward my house
And open the door
To my sanctuary,
Away from the noise
And the stress
Of the real,
Cruel world.
My home is my sanctuary;
My refuge is my home.
Home is my shelter
Where I can be,
For a little bit at least,
Until my depression
And anxiety
Break through
My thin barrier again,
At peace.
