What if there is no home?
The place where you grew up
Was nothing but a skeleton?
*
What if there is no home?
The memories
Are nothing but ash?
*
What if there is no home?
The sweet smell of cookies
Has wafted into thin air.
*
Is it a home
When it is broken,
Smoldering,
With nothing but heartache
And dashed dreams?
*
Is it a home
When you don’t wish to return,
You just want to walk away
And don’t care if the house burns?
*
What if there is no home?
Tired, lonely
With nowhere to go...
What if there is no home?
