Literature Text

She conjures up an image of the place.

The place that does not exist.

The place she yearns for.

The place she calls her home.



It's peaceful there,

quiet and relaxing.

It's where she can be herself.

And only there.



Where she does not wear a mask.

Where she does not have to hide.

Where she does not have to endure,

but can only live.



It makes her happy and sad.

A place to call home,

but it does not exist.

Yet?



Will it exist one day?

Can it exist one day?

She does not know,

does not want to know.



She just dreams of it.

Her home.

And she feels homesick,

because of something that only exists within her mind.
tried to summarize the feeling of homesickness without having a place to call home.
