POEM STARTER

Submitted by HardCoreWriter

Write a poem comparing a house and a home.

Ain’t My Home

They say home

Is where

The heart is,

So I guess

_This house_

_Ain’t my home._


Yeah,

It may be a house,

A safe place for living,

But it surely ain’t

A place for loving.


_This house_

_Ain’t my home._


This house has

Walls built up,

And when I’m in it,

So do I.


_This house_

_Ain’t my home._



It’s got a roof

To keep rain

Out…

But it sure as hell can’t

Keep pain

Out.


_This house_

_Ain’t my home._


The people inside are

“_Nice_”,

But I know

It’s all just an act…

My heart never lies

With them,

No trust,

No love.


_This house_

_Ain’t my home._



In this house

I found refuge,

In this house

I found safety,

In this house

I found no home.


_This house_

_Ain’t my home._
