A Stranger At Home

Posted Jun 15, 2026 · 8 lines

When June out melts the winter

My numb limbs comes warm

A hated feeling that connects me to my birth place

Where I no longer belong

The summer skies here burns my youth into ashes,

Ashes that you will find under a cementary

This is a house, not a home anymore.

If my book turns to it last page, it has to end where I can find the house of my fantasies, where I can be buried under the grey cold skies of December, among those pale folks.
