Where My Heart Lives

Home to me is much more than a house with just windows, some walls and doors. It is where the feeling of welcoming warmth fills the air. It is where love flows free and true, A place where you feel safe to be uniquely you! A house is not the same as home, a house is just windows, some walls and doors. Home is a place where your heart and family live, when they are gone, their spirit remains. A house can be small or big, plain or fancy, old or new. A house is where you bring your heart to make it into a home. When you move, your house gives you a new start to be true to your heart! A house and home are different, much more than just windows, some walls and doors. A house is where you live and fill the space with things. Home is where you can make memories and truly be you! A house does not need to be fancy, and it could even be bright blue. They may seem the same, but one is much more than just windows, some walls and doors. A house and home may both have a secret key hidden under the mat. Home is where your story lives and may feel like a fairy tale for you. Home is where the heart is, that feels true! Home for me is wherever I am together with you!
