Home

I opened the door, Everything was dark, Everything was quiet, Then the lights went on, It was like everything just came alive. Home, A place where your family surrounds you, A place where your dreams float free of containment, A place where you spend holidays and birthdays, A place where you keep your memories. Home, The lights went off, the door closed, Everything was dark, Everything was quiet, Thoughts, Hopes, Memories Home. I opened the door to my room, Fell onto my bed, Opened my favorite book and read, I heard my parents talking in the living room, Asking each other how their day had been, I turned off my bedroom light, Rolled over and fell to sleep, I let my dreams carry me to unimaginable places. Then I woke up and I was at home again, With my family, Home.
