Home is a term for where you live
Right?
Home is where all your things are
Home is supposed to be where your heart is
Where you live, laugh, and love
Where you settle and rekindle the fire

My home is not where I stay
It is not where I live, laugh, and love
It is not where my heart is
My house is where I keep my things
My house is where I stay

My home?
My home is my best friend
Her heart and her presence is my home
She is where my heart is
She is where I live, laugh, and love
She is where I feel complete
She is my home
Without her I'd be homeless

I thank her
For being that home
I can always count on.
That home I know will never leave
That home that is forever

'Home' is a strange word,
But I think the definition is clear to me now
