Anywhere

Author’s Own, Mosque in Khujand, Tajikistan

In search of a home

She sought

Everywhere

Look and look she did

But she couldn’t find

Anything

Rather than look outside

She needed to peer

Within

Her soul got loud

Ecstatic to finally be

Heard

She learned at last

She was as worthy of her love

As others

It suddenly became clear

She could live

Anywhere
