And i dream

The excuses i give to you i wouldn't expect from others,
the things you do i wouldn't expect from lovers,
the thumb print on a piece of cake everyone passes over i choose
the pile of manure that you whispered in my ear was my favorite dish i believed,
naive is my middle name insecure my first,
you throw boulders at me and i pick them up and make a house,
choosing to set it up next to a flourishing dwelling,
strong un breakable foundation, extravagant windows letting in beams of light,
white pillars holding up the second level, smelling the aroma of love
i stack my rocks, my boulders like an igloo,
bed of hay and lies,
spaces in between my rocks masking as my windows like my smile masking my true reality,
little light little air, the house of love blocking my view of the valley of dreams,
i am sad but i continue to dwell in this home.. i made for my self
gazing threw the cracks of my home, my rock igloo, i start to see a foundation slowly going up on the land next to mine, made up of trust, love, compassion, God, communication, compromise, forgiveness,
and i dream…
