Feel at Home

Home is a place I can go, where I can forever feel safe in the arms of my loved ones. Home is some place that everyone deserves, warmed by love, and lit by joy, the place you can feel comforted and happy. The place where I can feel love caressing me and protecting me. Home is a place I can hide from the dangers beyond the walls that close in on me. A place where no one will try to bring me down, and everything will only haul me up. The walls that keep me inside don’t suffocate me, they make me feel protected. All the things behind the walls of my home, the things you cannot see, are the things making me stronger, the memories that shine and shadow others. Home… the very place I learn to do the many things I do now, and the place that makes me feel at peace. The sounds around the house, the joy of everyone radiates like a melody being played, strung by the bond we have created. The place where I can be safe and joyful, the sounds play harmonically through my ears, the place I finally feel at home.
