A Winter's Walk

A Winter's Walk

A Poem by therisa
"

Thoughts on a cold wintery November day.

"
Softly
My feet move
In the freshly fallen snow.

Travelling in
A direction
I don't know.

But hope
It's some place
I can call
Home.

Where my heart is
An object of desire
Not shame or guilt
Like now.

Able to share
My love
Without hoarding it
Like gold.

Building up
A place of growth
Instead of
Tearing everything down.

As I find myself
Standing
Before my apartment door
Turning the keys
To open it.

Home is where the heart is. Kind of sad and lonely Therisa, but I liked it.

Thank you, Willweb. There are some days, which this poem describes, how I'm feeling about life.
