Haven

by Khushboo Sawlani

disturbed

unsettling

that flustered feeling

drops

and everything’s haywire

in those times

hold onto

your sweetest memories

in the deepest nooks of your heart

pull them out

let them heal you

out of discomfort

let your precious haven

be a source of

comfort

home

& security

that you go back to

every-time it is

when life

or the prospect of it

disappoints you

your safe haven

where you can rest for a while

till you feel better

be better
