Home

Home is a place to evade dire commotions, A dwelling to reveal extents of emotions Whether it’s joy or sadness or just feeling blue, At home, you can express and truly be you Home is the foundation of childhood memories From providing you necessities To drawing on walls and measuring height, Home is where life’s memories take flight It’s not the house that makes home what it is; Home is the feeling of people, warmth, the pure bliss The essence of comfort and empathy The feel of parents caring so tenderly A troubled thought, an endless plea Homeless people unlike you and me Sleeping beneath the stars and sky Out on bitter, cold streets they lie A problem that really should be fought For home and family, what’s really sought Everyone deserves a home, a place to be A safe environment to let personalities free Protection and warmth, an essential need To have a home for those who plead A touch of joy, lingering the air For the people in need, it’s truly unfair Home, the place of everlasting memories Voices of loved ones, beautiful melodies To leave everything forges an agonizing bruise Home is something too painful to lose We as people should work together To fight homelessness, to make the world better Find safety and shelter, people who care Help people on streets, to rid all despair Regardless of how big or how small, Home is a refuge, paradise for all The spirit of safety, love, and trust, Home is the heart that beats in us
