I am from...

I am from the biggest house in the neighborhood The constant screaming of kids The chorus of clanging tools The concrete cracking across the road. I am from the house with the giant windows The house still echoes from the giggles and laughs from me and my brothers playing The dents in the walls a daily reminder of games and fights Some days you can almost still hear the bickering. I am from the house with the best father weekend breakfasts Every surface sparkling from my mom’s daily cleaning Brothers bickering at every possible moment My dog licking the scraps off the floor. I am from the house where you can feel safe and comfy Where there's always something going on Where you can let out a sigh of relief at the end of the day But most importantly home is where the homies are. I am from home.
