a home or so they called it

A home or so they called it.

***

For them, home was never an option
For them, home was never real never there never called it
But for them now, home was the smile, the chattering, the 3 a.m drunk phone call.
For them, home was each of their laugh, home was a family they found in the middle of the night, drunk, and sad.
