This House

This House

By Kazz Falcon

 

This house I lived in

It was beautiful at first

Lots of love was there

It was comfortable and pleasant

Sunshine was in every room

Even where the sun couldn’t reach

I was at peace

I had no problems

It was home sweet home

I could live here forever

Now, the house was dark and gloomy

I was concerned about my roomie

Something wasn’t right

There was a large shadow over him

I didn’t felt safe at all

I pestered him till he talk

He confessed he lost his job few months ago

He mentioned he had no other choice

I was confused about the last comment

He admitted the boss fired him

I wondered why

He wouldn’t tell me why

Next few weeks, I noticed lots of people was showing up

Some of them came during the middle of the night

I realized drugs entered our home

My roomie decided to make fast money

He sold drugs at the house

I wasn’t happy about it

This wasn’t a home any more

It was home hell home

He ruined the sunshine in this house
