Fumble with the key

Insert and twist

A rush of scent hits me

Smells like me

Like home

I smirk

It’s been awhile little apartment

I think sarcastically to myself

I walk around as if it’s a new concept

A completely new experience

But it has all the memories

Caked into these four walls

The late night talks with people

The parties

The tv binging days

The laughter

The sadness

It’s all here

You don’t get that when you travel

A familiar place

That’s home
