Pain hides the story
Smile shields the pain
The world in her apartment
The apartment is her world
Surrounded by her barricade of books
she lives in the leaves of other people's trees
and forgets there is
an "out there"
Days become weeks become months become life
She doesn't remember what it feels like
to be lonely
Snuggles in her broken bed
embraced by no one that feels like everything
She doesn't even mind the cold anymore
Why would she
when it feels like home
