PEOPLE AREN’T HOMES
Child,
why did no one
ever teach you
that you cannot
turn people
into homes?
People are rivers,
ever changing,
ever flowing.
They will disappear with
everything you put
inside them.
Still,
your home does
have a heartbeat.
But it isn’t one
locked in
anyone else’s
chest.
Just
look inside
your own.
