Poem: “Home Sweet Home”

Home Sweet Home

 

Home sweet home I can just taste it…

Home sweet home I’m racing for it…

Home sweet home when I can just sit and have family time…

Home sweet home I miss taking care of what’s mine…

Home sweet home I feel it,

Leaving off this facility it’s almost my time…

Home sweet home I have a feeling I’m about to go home

So I’mma keep saying the line

Home sweet home,

Home sweet home.

    Thank you for sharing this with us! I pray that you were able to return home and someday build a home for yourself. I encourage you to invite others in and give those who don’t have one a home. Keep writing; we hear you!

    Home is indeed sweet home. Nothing beats home and can definitely tell that sometimes that it can become the only thing on your mind. I hope you made it home and you get out of wherever you were. Family is something the most powerful force and it can invoke all your senses and heartbeat like you said. And, I do believe inn manifesting your future if you keep hoping. So, good luck!

    This is a beautifully written poem. By the looks of your poem, it seems as though you miss your home very much. I hope that one day you return back to your mom. Due to not having much free time in today’s world, your poem shows that people should sometimes just sit at home and relax. I think you could add more to this poem.
