Community

Is like a warm sweater

It takes time to make

But it's worth it

It's warm

And comfortable

Community is like

Your favorite book

You can move on

Go somewhere else

But when you're tired

You can sink back

Into what you already know

And it will be there

To welcome you

Community is like

If the house

That you call home

Could be made out of people

Full of things from your past

Full of things preparing you

For your future

Safe

Warm

Open doors

Community

Is something

That should never be

Taken for granted

Just enjoy that you built

Relationships

With so many people

Who will hug you

Listen to you

Wipe away your tears

And stand beside

Whenever you need it

  • When They Were Kids

    The past

    Full of mishaps

    Full of mistakes

    Full of mess ups

    Full of errors

    Contradictory

    We should learn about

    All the things we did wrong

    So we can get better

    But some people

  • Kid Or Adult

    We're only kids

    But we need to be

    As mature as adults

    We're little kids

    It's not safe

    But we're basically an adult

    So we can have adult responsibilities

    We can't stay up with friends
