L'Avenir
L'Avenir
In these walls I lay a legacy,
Nothing so obtuse as blood lines or genetics,
But of something born from revelry,
That means more than simple aesthetics,
The wood, the stone, the grief, the ecstasy,
Quilted to a future idyllic,
My life is full of homes I’ve made,
Abundant in every step conveyed.
