Our House

If we continue to
bump these walls
shake this structure
shout and fight within its
damaged walls
our house will surely fall

If this anger doesn't subside
calm or dissipate
it will continue to rage
mount; engage, coercing you to
respond
feeding your seething hate
love crisscrossed
pure emotion misled
misguided
twisted and perverted
our house will surely fall

If we fail to mount this life
on the cornerstone of His might
it will miss the mark
slide sloppily down the walls of this union
dripping acid, burning through drywall and
foundations steel, and
our house will surely fall

If trust doesn't go past
the visible, apparent
and every interaction inspires
spite's reaction
we won't make it
we will manifest death, and
our house will surely fall.
