I Just Wanted to Go Home.

I thought I saw your face today –

My heart thumped erratically out of rhythm.

Thumped.

Thumped.

Thumped.

And dropped.

I thought I saw your face today –

All of time just stopped.

A gaping black hole

Swallowed the crowd whole.

I was entrapped in your car

Longing to go home.

Clenched inside the hand of Fear.

I just wanted to go home –

You had other plans.
