• 🌿 •
I can’t buy you a house, but I’ll give you a home.
Against whatever odds, I’ll be your comfort zone.
From morning ’til night, I am sure to nag.
As sure as I will listen, each time you lag.
I’ll push you to the edge until you’re flying.
We’ll soar then converge to our one safe landing.

It may not be yesterday,
and neither will it be tomorrow.
But let today not be of sorrow,
for surely, one day
the humble home that we’ll build
will be a house love shall never forgo
