Before I could
recall a decade I had a place:
front door, back door-
TV room
It was where my parents were;
where my stuff was.
It never occured to me it would go away
Or maybe it didn't
I moved away, and lost it by leaving it behind
You only leave one childhood home
Every house after that is an echo
watered down aftershocks
Poor imitations of the last safe place you had.
