We toil And slave And sweat On  mundane tasks of day-to-day In a trodden path We pace in circles Through a routine Thicker than molasses Our arm extended to both sides And fingers spread as fans We make the struggle even worse In an effort to ensnare Not matter, But what matters The idle chats when days draw to a close A gentle, loving stroke A smile, a laugh A joyful tear A warm embrace before the dawn And sometimes (if we're lucky) Even a plump adventure All of which we catch In the sieves that are our palms Bringing them Closer to our core Kneading Forming Sculpting Into prisms of pure light Shining like the sunrise Placing those One on top the other While keeping on the go Brick by brick We build ourselves A home

We toil And slave And sweat On  mundane tasks of day-to-day In a trodden path We pace in circles Through a routine Thicker than molasses Our arm extended to both sides And fingers spread as fans We make the struggle even worse In an effort to ensnare Not matter, But what matters The idle chats when days draw to a close A gentle, loving stroke A smile, a laugh A joyful tear A warm embrace before the dawn And sometimes (if we're lucky) Even a plump adventure All of which we catch In the sieves that are our palms Bringing them Closer to our core Kneading Forming Sculpting Into prisms of pure light Shining like the sunrise Placing those One on top the other While keeping on the go Brick by brick We build ourselves A home
I love life with you, for all its comprising parts life and with you
