A Home not a House

Home is such a wonderful place, a place you can relax, a place where dreams chase. A home is not a house. A home is made of memories, love and dreams. A house is made of shelter, walls and beams. When you see a home your heart feels a win, for a home is not just a house it's what you feel within. The meaning of home is a wonderful thing, it's where you find comfort, it's where you can sing. A home is such a comforting place, where you sleep in a cozy bed, not worry about things, have a blank head. You can cry or laugh, or you can spread your wings. Open your heart, let someone in, for your home is what you can cherish within. Home is many beautiful things, a dunk in the pool, when your heart feels a sting. For a home you don’t have to be loyal, kind or strong. You just have to be you, just you, not a person with a heart o’ so long. Home is where you can think to yourself how lucky you are, For you have a home, not a house, and a home goes so far.
