Homeless at Home
The worst of it is being told that it’s not a problem when in all actuality it’s an issue many young ones endure and grow up in that estranged way of life.
Some may consider it just a building
Yet home is where the comfort lays
Where our dark feelings run to hide
With love from each and every member
We need to be reminded that home;
Home is our main gateway to peace
Peace is gladly welcomed in
Then within all honesty
Rude behaviour is then banned as a guest
Since the most peculiar thing to happen
By within the household is to feel
Well… is to feel loneliness
Yet each step I take I become more in tune
The idea that a house is not alone a home
Rather home is where the heart takes you to be free
Decisions are made and we pick at the crest
The door bells chime a silent invitation
And the door mat hasn’t been cleaned in ages
What is a home without its household?
An empty space that declares something else
Where in a world full of homelessness
It’s more than people living on the street
There’s a magnetic process that implies danger
Danger of the spirit from being neglected
One where I’m set being in my home living it as lonesome
When being homeless at home is nothing new
It’s an important call to pronounce on two
Reasons that forward pain like an email
Can’t eliminate the address of my body’s destination
As it walks it’s way into my common space
Home in collection of basic protection
Why must my permanent guest treat me so
In an abusive manor where I’m left in fear
Fear of being lunged into simple destiny
Whether this bodily made home is still mine
I reckon that there is purpose to keeping
And truthfully making aware of help
That only speaks its for you.
