house will you be my home?

I gently whisper to the night

I thought I lost you

for that I am deeply sorry

it was a thought made in sorrow

and a heart which was broken

and torn with much fright

will you forgive me

for me saying good bye?

I remember the day I said good bye

I recall the silent sorrow

and how my heart cried

much to my surprise

somehow here I am

somehow you are mine

it’s filled me with delight

but since I thought 

I had to let you go

and I said my good bye

I believe it is only right

I sit here and ask

house will you be my home?

I will take care of you

as you give me a home

we will gently take back each room

for these walls have seen much hurt

we will wipe away those memories

with much tenderness

we will clean all the walls

and fill all the spaces

with much love and gentleness

most of all I promise

in our home I will no longer

tolerate any fright

because we both have that right

we will pull back all the curtains

let the light shine through each window

to fill our hearts with comfort

and give us a gentle healing light

when we are both ready

we will open all the windows

to let us breathe new air

which will fill our spirits

as we let go of past despair

we will get to know each other again

as we walk through the halls

we will both be praying

towards the healing light

for this will be our home

as our spirits, hearts, and souls heal

this will be a home

full of peace and much joy

each and every night

I whisper this gently

house no one else wants you

my tears are hidden in the night

no one else makes room for me

it is called reality

we are both broken

and torn beyond repair

it’s what people say

we will help each other

it doesn’t matter what they say

because we both know it’s a new day

together we will find our way

we will not be alone

and I promise you

we will be a home
