Often
I dream of snuggling up into someone's welcoming arm.
resting my head against his chest,
feeling his warmth,
having my heartbeat following the rhythm of his'
Then I'll be home
Even if everything that surrounds us are in chaos,
I am home,
safe, secure,
protected.

I imagine that then I realise that I don't need that to happen
I'm strong, so they say
I don't need that sort of comfort,
that can one day disappear;
something that's simply temporary
