I had always wished for arms to be wrapped around me like a blanket,

to always have that feeling of being protected like a mama bare to their cub,

to always have bright smiles aimed at me like an arrow to a target,

to always have that feeling of trust flowing through my veins.


I had always imagine coming home with open arms

I’d always imagine us singing together like we were the only people on earth,

I’d always imagine us cooking together like a chef and his passion,

I’d always imagine seeing you…

I live in a dysfunctional family and a lot of the time these were the thoughts or feelings that would go through my head.
