Home: Everyone Deserves One

A house is a building with some walls and a roof But home is something different, I even have proof. Every day, I get showered with love and joy Because being in my home is something I enjoy. When I’m surrounded by family, I can be me. I suddenly get this feeling, I am finally free. Home is made of the people that live there. A true home is filled with love, happiness and care. At home I’ll always be safe and warm. My home is made of the love we form. My family cares about me. And that will always be. A home is full of love and joy lit up like a flame But remember that no two homes are the same. No two homes are the same because no two families are alike. Home is where I learned to ride a bike! Home is a small word with a huge meaning. But for some, The wish for a home, they can only be dreaming. I want to help make a difference Because I’m not the only one that deserves to live in magnificence. I want others to experience the same kind of happiness And we can help them out of their unhappiness. I want others to feel the same way Because we feel down on days that are gray. Home is a place where I am always welcome. I want all to feel that way and those who don’t, that’s a problem Everyone deserves a home. That’s why I’m writing this poem. Home makes me feel better. Just like a warm cozy sweater. And Home is something for all. So fight for what’s right and stand tall.
