A House , Not A Home

Are we meant to spend our whole lives Collecting bricks To build a house That doesn’t feel like a home There is always something missing When heart is filled with fear instead of love We are conditioned to keep achieving And striving for more Not to show emotions Pretend to be strong If you swallow your pride You may get what you think that you want I hope that you don’t wake up one day Disconnected from your soul Because life is a game When you think that you are winning at it You can lose it all
