A House Is Not a Home

Just an empty building.

A House Is Not a Home

When I think about home, I don’t think of a building.

I don’t see the green grass covering the lawn.

I don’t picture the empty living room table.

I don’t feel the bright colors of the walls.

I don't transport into my purple childhood bedroom.

Instead, when I think about home, I think of the people.

Who I grew up with, who I look up to, and who I love.

The people inside of the building make this house feel like a home.

Because without them, it is just green grass.

It is just an empty living room table, colorful walls, and an unmade bed.

Instead, I imagine all the life filled within these walls.

The ones who could make any place feel like a home.
