Homebound (Young Girl)
I was on my way home
Where to, I do not know
Perhaps to some nice stranger’s abode
Or maybe to someplace I already know
Or maybe…
Just a resting place for my soul
Anywhere would be pleasant
Anywhere will do
As long as it’s not back to
That home I once knew
Where he smelled of alcohol
Whenever he came to me
Where my cries weren’t enough
Until he made me bleed
Where shiny black bruises
Were my own custom tattoo
Where my innocence was stolen
And I’d be killed if anyone knew
So tonight I had enough
And decided to run away
Homebound for any place
Safe and warm that I can stay.
