How to build a home

As birds build their nest
Gathering sticks overtime
This act shall be my quest
Until a home sits within my chest

I don’t know how to begin
I shall try my best
With baked bricks of love
Laid over my fears
My loyalty the damproof course
To keep away the moulds
My eyes will be the light
Lighten every crevice
Walls shall be crack free
Darkness cannot seap
My shoulders shall be the strength
When troubles collapse
My hands shall mine concrete
Until my heart becomes a home

As birds build their nest
Gathering sticks overtime
This act shall be my quest
Until a home sits within my chest
