Another Word for Home
Home is Not Just a Place
My home is not the place I lay my head
My home is a person, an amazing person
Not brick and mortar but flesh and bone instead
He loves me despite my mistakes and there are plenty
There is never judgment only love, unconditional love
Through all the storms in my life and there are many
His gentle nature and loving heart calm my fears
No words spoken but he speaks just the same
His heart to my heart and a touch to wipe my tears
Always there, he is my world, he is my foundation, he is my home
He asks for nothing in return and is never one to boast
He is a man of few words, no extravagant gestures
He saves his heart, his dreams for the ones he loves the most
His wants and needs have been very few
He has never looked for praise although well deserved
His own dreams seldom expressed go unspoken too.
Through times of joy and times of strife
He is there to celebrate and at times console
He is a true friend, a sturdy hand, he gave me life
Always there, he is my world, he is my foundation, he is my home
Home is more than a structure on some random street
Home is a place where your heart resides
It is a reason you are who you are and why your heart beats
Home is my Father, My Friend, he is more than the reason I exist
He is strength, kindness, love, compassion and caring
And so many more words could be added to this list
Like Christian, Counselor, Teacher, and Friend
My life has taken me far away from him
It is a decision I made and at times find hard to defend
And still
Always there, he is my world, he is my foundation, he is my home
