Give me a place of belonging
A place to rest my head,
Where there’s safety, and there’s comfort
Where I can put my thoughts to bed.
Show me like-minded people
Who have rooms there of their own,
Who wave me in to welcome me
Helping me feel not lost, alone.
No one has to talk too much
The unspoken word is clear,
It screams of understanding
Allaying all my fears.
I want sometimes, a nice warm hug
Reassurance I’ll be okay,
I’d give back the same to each and all
And then, be on my way.
