Home isnt always where the heart is

i wish i could explain but all i can say sometimes home is just somewhere we feel safe and isnt always best for us. i just lost my family my new house isnt a home yet.

Home where are you
your invisible to me
i see a house
but it isnt as it appears to be

home you arent safe
i feel lost within your walls
they hold so many secrets
how much more before it falls.

home i do not feel you
your here but not the same
where are all the memories
are they too lost within this game?

home i need you
they are all wrong
home is not where the heart is
because my safety is long gone

home your now a place
a place i do not know
your not where i feel safe
your not where i wish to go

you are different
for my home is not here
home is not where the heart is
but a place that i held dear

you are a house
my home has my heart
your a place i want to leave
but my home has been torn apart

I love this, sometimes going home where all the beautiful memories are, isn't at all what it once was.. I felt the sadness in this, in all reality, home isn't where the heart is, home is in the arms of the people who surround you with love :) this is a fabulous write...

Great job on this and I feel the same way. But then where is the home we feel safe in or do we not even have one.

[EmpressPoetess]

very sad. You expressed this sad helpless feeling of abuse very well.

[Zeitgeist Manifesto]

Wow. Powerful work.

[SpokenWord]

I have never felt apart from my home but I can feel how it feels through your words. This poem could also represent a relationship.
