A home...

It was a home without a heart
a home that callously tore me apart
the home that sowed the seed
blinding all to my basic need

evil was it's course
backed by a malevalent force
a rock & a hard place
choices that you have to make

it was a home that trembled my lip
as i lay aboard that sinking ship
a deviant past with no tomorrow
riding current waves of sorrow

It was a home of discontent
a home where years of hell i spent
it must have been cursed
evil always found us first

The home was autocratic
responsive fear was automatic
it's where i ballet danced
loud steps would incur a wrath

it's where i dared to hope
without it i could not have coped
in a home full of lies
a home where innocence cannot thrive

It was a home without a heart
a home that callously tore me apart
the home from which i flew
discovering joy & pastures new...
