needs A home


If you asked for the first word

that came into someone’s mind

when they look into mine

and they’re searching for some time

they would never find a sign,

for everything starts to blur.

It’s not my fault, I’m just shy and awkward.

 

But when I’m bold,

I’d try to analyze them like I know I could

I’d learn how to turn

their doubts to gold;

they’d never fall or fold.

I’d inspire like a snowfall, but I’m never cold.

 

I still recall how it would feel

to be excluded, left out of the deal.

Friends forget you when you’re down.

I aim to please and to appeal,

help one forget their Achilles’ Heel.

I only breathe so that I’m around

 

when a lonely soul needs a home,

I’d never make them feel alone.

When a tired soul needs a home,

I’d never make them feel alone.

 

Whenever a wanderer needs to stop

I easily become the rock

even if I’m falling down

and I feel my throat starting to lock.

I’m defensive for my family ,

and if you think that I’m lonely, then look at me.

I’ve got my friends. Friends are family; that’s all i need.

And I still know that we all have room to grow.

But I am the one who shows care and I’ll be

the one to fly to you and pick you up off your feet. For

 

when a lonely soul needs a home,

I’d never make them feel alone.

When a lonely soul needs a home,

I’d never make them feel alone.
