home.

what if home is an abstract concept ?


 

maybe sometimes it looks like something


 

maybe sometimes it doesn't


 

but they both have meanings even if you can't see .


 

home can be a place


 

it can be obvious,, and seen.


 

it can be tall and lean.


 

and can be short and stub.


 

on the outside it can be nice,, colorful and kind,, warm and inviting .


 

but sometimes,, just maybe,, behind the color is something deep,, dark and scary .


 

that's why sometimes home can be a person .


 

sometimes it can be a warm person,, soft and neat .


 

sometimes it can be a harsh person,, sharp and mean .


 

but any person can feel like a home to anyone


 

the fear can wash away,, the fear can go away .


 

and they feel safe .


 

sometimes home can even be an event that happens only once a year .


 

maybe a family gathering


 

maybe christmas,, thanksgiving,, who knows .


 

sometimes people lay low during things like that


 

but others laugh openly and talk openly


 

because they feel at home .


 

safe and sound .


 

anything can be a home if you put your mind to it


 

anything sweet as can be .


 

anything that makes your heart beat .


 

anything that radiates love

  • No place better

    A better place, they whisper

    yet, its your arms i long to embrace.

    they call it heaven,

    a place above,

    better than the earth we love.

    if heavens better,

    why does my heart ache for love i can't remake?

  • I am...

    I am great and tall,

    bushy and fast,

    orange with swirls of yellow and white. 

     

    I am a fox.

    I run in the forest with my furry friends.

    my tail bouncing,

    you choose the coldest seat in the class

    next to the tall pretty girl

    with a gleaming smile and long, straight flowing hair.

    taking one good look at her you already know her story.
