Roses are red, violets are blue, I have a home and so do you! But roses aren't forever red, and violets aren't always blue, if a house can never be a home, it’ll feel like living in a hole. A house could mean a lot of little things like it could be a structure, a place you live in for a while then move out, or even a place where you grow up in but it could mean nothing to you. A home could mean a lot of big things like where you could go when you’re at your lowest and get love and support, when you don't have to hide anything, or when you never want to leave to move away because of all the good memories. Many people live in homes but some people live in a house. Some houses may be abusive and cruel, maybe even torturing! But homes are loving and supportive. I think everyone should be able to live in a home.
