Home

I am building a home for us,
Laughter is the air we breathe
Sadness, hidden in the basement,
Courage, the minute we walk through the door

Days with you would be the bricks we would build our house on,

Until you arrive, I will build my own foundation
Strong roots that dig deep into the earth.
The longer I wait,
the deeper they go

It's okay if you take your time

Our home,
our life,
is worth the sweat,
the fear,
and even the cries.

because I am building a home for us...
