House

Summary:

An interpretation of love as being similar to a house.

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

Love can be likened to a house, for
if trust is the foundation, then
respect and commitment are the beams that hold
up a bond built
brick by brick
from a blueprint of a future
that two souls share, knowing full well
that the roof of romance might leak
that the floorboards of fidelity might creak
that it might all fall down.

Yet they choose
each other, hoping their house endures
the test of time. 

Notes:

Hi, damn_so_you_like_it! :D This was inspired about a conversation we had a looong time ago under one of my poems, and I remember you saying I should write a poem about love being like a house. Well, this is that poem! I hope you enjoy it!

Thank you for reading!
