Going Home

Anarchy symbols on a steamed glass hallway
I thought this was college

He said it was cold
because of the emptiness

or was it the temperature
or both

Seems like home to me
only with less décor

A welcomed change of pace
without looking over my shoulder

Keeping bitter rhythm with the snow
and the howl is not imagined this time

It was worth the trip
In spite of the absent

Worth it because of that really
Because just being isn’t enough

Neither is just being here
It took some doing too
