My Home
In my home I feel safe
With my dogs
and my family
There’s nothing like
sitting in bed
watching
Youtube or TV
I feel at home
when I’m with my siblings
whether we’re fighting
or not
I feel at home
with my parents
at the dinner table
talking about the day that we had
On the bus ride
home with my brother
no talking
not making any eye contact
just enjoying
the silence in our heads
for a good
15 minutes
until we get home
On the couch with my puppy Daisy
letting her curl up
into a little croissant
between my legs and the couch
That’s what home means to me
