Finally home, cheers, hugs, kisses abound My head throbs, but the fierce rage I contain On hair-trigger alert, my inner storm starts to pound As a good soldier, I've learned to take the pain Family and friends are strangers somehow Their laughter and words sound rehearsed and staged Their eyes betray fear of who I am now In their lives I can no longer be engaged I flinch when car lights flash and horns sound With dread, all night I pace the floor Sunrise, I depart, Greyhound station bound Too lost to be found, I've no home anymore
