Short Stories & Poems

home

home?
what is home?
home is where you feel
the warmth of love
home is where you taste
the sweetness of comfort
home is where you smell
the savory aroma of joy
home is where you hear
the laughter and smiles of family
home is where you see
life growing and blooming before you

but this
does not feel like home
yes I feel the warmth
yes I taste the sweetness
yes I smell that aroma
yes I hear the laughs
yes I see the life
but sometimes
I feel cold
I taste bitterness
I smell foulness
I hear cries
I see pain
and sometimes a home is just a house
and sometimes, thats no ones fault
but your own
