EVERYONE NEEDS A HOME

Everyone needs a home. To know that they aren’t alone Yet millions of people are cast away. Nobody gives them a second glance each day. I cannot stand this, I can't. And I shan't. Everyone, big and small, needs a home. You have a home. I do too. It is everything you need it to do. I think a home is your place, where you raise your son or daughter. Perhaps in a cupboard (if you're Harry Potter). It is a shelter. A place where you can curl up by a fire. A place to be out of the chaos, where nobody calls you a liar. A “Home”-such a beautiful name. Put it to good use, before you go down in shame. You grow up in a home. It’s where memories are born. When you leave, new ones sprout, out of old memories worn. A home is like a flower, it never really dies. it shoots up from the ashes and you let it rise.
