I Will Build You A House


If you let me kiss your arms forever I will fold the shirts and bring you tea
You’ll stitch the sleeves and I will sing songs to you while I scramble the eggs
Turn your back on the moon and wear tank tops with stripes
Socks off, we will get a goat, get a car and outrun the sunlight
They’ll never catch us
- Anis Mojgani

It's the tea and the tank tops with stripes that gets me. And a house? Yes, please.
