In the Streets
The streets felt more at home, than home.
These long dim street lights seemed to be brighter than those at home.
Those of the streets made me laugh louder than my folks at home.
The food in the streets make me fuller than that on my plate at home.
The decisions I took in the streets were way more smarter than those I usually take at home.
Some thoughts I had in the streets were clearer than those I had at home.
Even though sometimes I faked a smile in the streets, I did too at home.
Sometimes I felt unloved in the streets, I question if I was ever really loved at home.
After all is said and done, I found home in the streets.
