Everything that you have wanted to be...

I'm building a house for myself 

where doors don't slam 

and people don't yell 

and love is scattered across a kitchen table 

that was built with kindness and respect.

I'm building a house for myself 

where the floors can be painted yellow 

and the tables can be painted blue 

because there is no right way to do anything 

except to do it with you.

I'm building a house for myself 

that will echo the feelings 

that live deep inside my chest 

but you will know that 

when you step into the rooms 

that were built by people 

who love one another 

with nothing but respect.

I'm building a house for myself 

that was made 

for lovers like me 

where there is space 

for you to be 

everything that you've always wanted to be ..
