Of Home

Home is
much more
than a building to me
it is peace
peace of mind
security
I can lay my head down
rest my crown
no need to ponder
the plethora of problems
outside my door
the urge to be atlas' daughter
and carry the weight of the world
is no longer existent

Home is unity
coming together
as a person
as a family
to eat
to love
to pray
to be
seems like
there aren't
many homes anymore
just houses
with addresses
with people
in and out
living separately
housemates

But I will be
the lone hold out
I will be
the home keeper
I will
advocate
preserve
build
homes
because
without a home
without my homes
I would be nowhere
no one
and nothing

so I ask you
where is your home?
