365 days of being away

coming home has been bitter but sweet

the familiarity of being home is sweet

but also the familiarity of being home is bitter

it was

365 days of joy

365 days of healing

365 days of adventure

365 days of independence

365 days of being away

but now it’s

365 days of hiding from the sadness

365 days of ignoring the trauma

365 days of forgetting the nothingness

365 days of avoiding the loneliness

365 days of being away

so it’s sweet coming home

but it’s also bitter
